rocket launchers

Feature: M&S missile launcher web service
    As a website visitor 
    So that i have fun shooting chris with foam missiles
    I want a webcam view from the launcher, and to be able to move and fire the launcher

setup

# install pyusb
sudo pip install pyusb
# install picamera
sudo pip install picamera
# install flask
sudo pip install flask

udev permissions

In order to connect to the USB without being a super user, we need to add an udev rule.

# 666 perms on device 1130:0202
sudo sudo bash -c 'echo SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="1130", ATTR{idProduct}=="0202", MODE="0666" > /etc/udev/rules.d/99-missile.rules'
# restart udev 
sudo udevadm trigger
