Raspberry Pi client server rc car control system utilising a smartphone/tables gyro and html5/javascript running on node.js

picar's Issues

other web interface?

Has anyone done a simpler interface with just left, right, forward, reverse buttons in socket.html -- instead of dependency on phone position? Or virtualjoystick from https://github.com/RetroMelon/Raspberry-Pi-Car would be awesome.

Have trouble running 'node app.js'

Error:Cannot find module './build/Release/node_sleep.node'

I used the latest node package.

Error running app.js

When I run node app.js I get the following error:
/home/pi/picar/node_modules/socket.io/lib/index.js:177
const keysIterator = this.parentNsps.keys();
^^^^^

error running pwm_test2

so this file cannot find the 'pi-blaster.js' file as it says here:
_Error: Cannot find module 'pi-blaster.js'
at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:338:15)
at Function.Module._load (module.js:280:25)
at Module.require (module.js:364:17)

at Module.load (module.js:356:32)
at Function.Module.load (module.js:312:12)
at Function.Module.runMain (module.js:497:10)

not only that but the way this pwm_test2 is written as if the are in the same file when it clearly isn't:
var piblaster = require("pi-blaster.js");
here's a screenshot, as you can see pi-blaster is not here nor in the other files of the project, there's a pi-blaster.c, a pi-blaster.boot, but so far not a pi-blaster.js, so the program is basically trying to access a non-existent file and whats worse is i cannot even edit the file because its apparently a read only file.

someone help as soon as possible, please.
