LinuxCNC controls CNC machines. It can drive milling machines, lathes, 3d printers, laser cutters, plasma cutters, robot arms, hexapods, and more.

Library and command line program providing access to the EEPROM of an Silabs CP2101 / CP2102 / CP2103. It can programm the USB-Descriptors and the Baudrate table.

This python utility allows users on Linux to control their PC using a HID compatible USB foot pedal. Note: footcontroller does not support the new VEC Infinity in-USB3 pedal, which is not fully Linux compatible The foot pedal becomes an extra mouse or mini keyboard but footcontroller allows you to define multiple pedal sets which you can activate at the click of a button. It uses xdotool to provide you with the ability to assign commands to each pedal. Many foot pedals come with software, often MS Windows only, which allows you to program the pedals to perform some function or other, Footcontroller does away with the proprietary software and allows you to define multiple sets of commands that can be swapped in or out at the click of a button. The advantage is that now, your foot pedal can perform different tasks in multiple situations simply by selecting the appropriate pedal set, rather than having to re-program the foot pedal from scratch.

This program is a cross-platform replacement for the widely known in close circles Parameter Design tool (also known as Keywin e-Bike Lab), used to set the parameters of a e-bike controller based on the Infineon XC846 microcontroller (and various clones).

A Linux program/library for interfacing the Velleman k8055 USB I/O board

Gizmod is a utility for enabling alternative input devices to be used in Linux. This includes such devices as the PowerMate USB dial, fancy keyboards and mice with buttons not recognized or supported by X. Gizmod allows per application event mappings.

A Python module to seamlessly interact with the Velleman K8055 kit via the K8055D.dll for Windows using Python ctypes

Automate the management of Cisco switches out-of-band (OOB) for extra security and reliability. Uses serial ports; version 2 is thread-safe and supports multiple switches.

Driver and tools for Pegasus Mobile Notetaker

PCSC lite is an I/O library for smart cards. This package provides the Python bindings for the PCSC lite libaray, thus letting you write smart card applications in Python. All available documentation can be read online at http://python-pcsclite.sourceforge.net/

Driver support for 3D Controller Hardware. We hope to support SDL Input, DirectInput, and other major controller API's including game consoles and embedded systems.

A portable library to access braille displays.

This project is a POSIX-compliant driver for the dgt board from dgtprojects. It is intented at acting as a layer between chess engines and the dgt board.

Parapin makes it easy to write code under Linux that controls individual pins on a PC parallel port. This kind of control is very useful for electronics projects that use the parallel port as a generic digital I/O interface (instead of as a printer port)

Pure Python I2C protocol interface over pySerial, pyParallel, ...

GTK client for LCDproc. The screens are optimized for 20x4 alphanumeric LCD and Logitech G15 LCD. It can show CPU stats, memory stats network stats, Amarok/Audacious/Exaile track info, uptime , date, clock, disk space usage and emesene information.

Cross platform, user space drivers and function library for the Lightstone Biometric widget. The Lightstone is part of the Journey to Wild Divine relaxation software package.

A FUSE file system and a Java J2ME Uploader for Samsung mobile phones.

Note: The project has moved to https://github.com/pyhys/minimalmodbus The files available here are very old, download from Github instead. MinimalModbus is an easy-to-use Python module for talking to instruments (slaves) from a computer (master) using the Modbus protocol, and is intended to be running on the master. Example code includes drivers for Eurotherm and Omega process controllers. The only dependence is the pySerial module (also pure Python). This software supports the ‘Modbus RTU’ and ‘Modbus ASCII’ serial communication versions of the protocol, and is intended for use on Linux, OS X and Windows platforms. It is open source, and has the Apache License, Version 2.0.

GROWbox Supervisor System (GROWSS) is a grow box or grow cabinet environmental controller. GROWSS uses a Raspberry Pi (RPI) & Grove sensors to monitor and control the environment in your grow box or cabinet. Environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, soil moisture, & smoke (from fire) are monitored and displayed on a terminal connected to the RPI & on a mobile app. GROWSS also controls the exhaust fan and grow lights based on the time interval (ie. 12 hours on/12 hours off) & from environmental factors, temp & humidity. The environmental values are saved to the local storage every 15 minutes and when an alarm is present. Hi & low values are also saved. The LEDs on the case & the mobile application indicate if there is a high/low temp alarm, hi/low humidity alarm, soil moisture alarm, or smoke alarm. A speaker (buzzer) is activated on the case if there is a smoke alarm. 2 other LEDs indicate if either the exhaust fan is on or if the humidifier is on.

Open source, cross platform drivers and function library for the NovInt Falcon Haptic Controller. These drivers are not produced by Novint Technologies, Inc. and do not come with any warranty as to their correctness or usage.

Python module for the i2c-tiny-usb project available here: http://www.harbaum.org/till/i2c_tiny_usb/index.shtml The module is an alternative for the linux kernel driver. With this module you can directly communicate with an I2C device. Discarded - Use Ti

Qwpr (pronounced "qwipper", named for the first four keys) is a keyboard layout that's easy to learn (only 11 keys move from their qwerty positions), easy to type (32% better by the Carpalx metric), practical (programmer's punctuation, arrow keys, and all major accented characters easily accessed without moving your hands off the three main rows), and very complete (over 1000 unicode characters and combinations available). The project also includes the tools I used to translate this layout from OSX to Windows format; linux tools pending.

This project site maintains several projects that support the acerhk.ko linux module and provide a GUI interface for the module to activate and deactivate the wireless and bluetooth radios. Please see this projects Wiki for more information: https://sourceforge.net/p/acerhkgui/wiki/Home/ Programs: AcerHK GUI -- Main program. Updated 2015-03-05. Version 0.7.2.5 should work. Please report errors, as it may still require some work. Cinnamon Desktop Applet -- simple system tray icon to provide radio on and off controls. It is also available at: http://cinnamon-spices.linuxmint.com/applets/view/219 Ubuntu AppIndicator Applet -- currently in development. Stay posted for this. Build Script for acerhk.ko. Use the 11.04+. Includes source code. Please see this projects Wiki for more information.
