Wio Terminal missing support for wifi, bluetooth and USB in ArduPy #18

Open ruppde opened 3 years ago

ruppde commented 3 years ago

Describe the bug Opposed to seeeds website, the python support for wifi, bluetooth, accelerometer, IR emitter, light sensor and USB is missing. And it looks like it will never come since the last update to ardupy was in August 2020.

To Reproduce

  1. Look at the webpage: https://www.seeedstudio.com/Wio-Terminal-p-4509.html "Compatible with Arduino and MicroPython, Wio Terminal is an ATSAMD51-based microcontroller with wireless connectivity powered by Realtek RTL8720DN"
  2. Look at Ardupy, nothing there.

Expected behavior Support for wifi, bluetooth, accelerometer, IR emitter, light sensor and USB as promised on webpage.

Hi, The webpage and the wiki pages are already updated and highlighted that Wio Terminal wireless connectivity is only supported by Arduino at the moment. Thank you for pointing it out.

We initially pointed out that ArduPy is also supported hoping to bring more functionalities later. Please understand that ArduPy is quite new and we plan to gradually bring more functions in the future.

Also, I have replied to the other functions issues here: https://github.com/lakshanthad/Wio_Terminal_Classroom_Ardupy/issues/3

Best Regards, Lakshantha

ok, thx

ruppde commented 3 years ago

@lakshanthad this issue isn't solved, please keep it open.

lakshanthad commented 3 years ago

Hi @2d4d,

We have released the latest ardupy-aip firmware to fix the existing bugs.

https://github.com/Seeed-Studio/ardupy-aip

Please uninstall your existing installation by:

pip3 uninstall ardupy-aip

And, install the latest version by:

pip3 install ardupy-aip

After installing, please run the following to make sure you have installed v0.9.1 which is the latest version:

aip -V

Best Regards, Lakshantha

hello @lakshanthad,

ok, great, where can I get the new firmware? (as far as I understand it, ardupy-aip is just the tool for the PC?) I didn't find a new firmware on https://wiki.seeedstudio.com/ArduPy/

regards arnim

lakshanthad commented 3 years ago

Yes. You are right. Sorry. ardupy-aip is just a tool. You can use it to build your own ArduPy firmware and flash into Wio Terminal. Previously there were some issues when running this tool. So they are fixed now.

Use aip help to view the available commands

Follow this : https://wiki.seeedstudio.com/ArduPy

Best Regards, Lakshantha

@lakshanthad hi, any news on the wifi + bluetooth support for wio terminal? would be very useful to properly use it ;)

Techy52 commented 3 years ago

@lakshanthad any news on including wifi + bluetooth support for wio terminal?

kelchm commented 3 years ago

It would be great to hear an update on this -- not being able to use wifi and bluetooth with ArduPy on the Wio Terminal has been a big disappointment.

so disappointed for missing wifi support with circuitpy or ardupy

yep, I doubt they'll ever change it :( go for m5stack, that's fully supported with python.
