Pebble Controlled Raspberry PiBot

The Pebble 2 way Communication SDK for Andoid and iOS has just been released, so what better way to try it out than by adding Pebble controls to my Raspberry PiBot Controller.


Pressing up on the Pebble steers left, select is a toggle between forwards or stop and down steers right.

The web service on the Pi returns a Json status message which is displayed on the Tablet Console. The tablet app also features voice commands via Android Google's android services.


This is also repeated onto the Pebble when a command is sent from either device.


The code for the Pebble app can be found at https://bitbucket.org/chughes42/pebble-pibot-app and is based on the examples included with the Pebble SDK.
