pip3 install -t requirements.txt ERROR: Target path exists but is not a directory, will not continue. Any ideas?

Hi CRPrinzler,

Thanks for letting me know about this! It was my mistake. Sorry about that. I had typed the wrong parameter for that command (-t instead of -r). I've upgraded the README file with the right instruction and also added another command that you should run before pip. Please check the new instructions up! I also fixed the name of the packages in the file requirements.txt as pip uses a different name than what I thought it does, so please download the updated file before running pip3 again. On a side note, if you just intend to run it in your system (instead of developing) maybe you could just try to execute the start_proximity.sh file. Probably every linux distro has python already installed, so you probably will find it runs just fine without creating a virtual environment.

Let me know how it goes, please.

Cheers, Rigo.
