Dashboard (again)

[WinstonHartnett]

GUI dashboard for remote_controller.py with (in order of priority):

• Button to enable/disable bot (see #2)
• Button to reboot everything
• Console to display (remote_controller.py output)
• % motor output (i.e. duty cycle) commanded of drivetraina and spinner motor controllers
• Battery voltage (use the Roboclaw's ReadMainBatteryVoltage)
• Network status, meaning:
  • ODroid is responding to heartbeat packets
  • Both drivetrain motors' 50Hz CAN STATUS_1 messages are being received (just check for can messages with ID = 0x00000900 and 0x00000901)
  • Roboclaw is responding (you can probably just check if ReadMainBatteryVoltage errored here)

Possible libraries here

all complete except for: reboot everything button --> not worth implementing to screw up current working code loop logic CAN network status check branch dashboard_klin
