-  * a cuboid structure made of plywood and stretchable fabric  +
-{{:​img_20120907_231737.jpg?​nolink&​100|}} +
-the process of [[linz-making-of|making of, here]] +
- +
-==== element 2: the mechanics ==== +
- +
-  * two firgelli [[http://nodna.de/linear-actuator_11|linear servo actuators]] to move the top of the structure +
- +
-  * the motors are controlled by an arduino diecimila board.  +
- +
-==== element 3: the controls ==== +
- +
-  * arduino diecimila with [[extended-python-arduino-api|extended-python-arduino-prototyping-api]] firmware +
- +
-  * startup script ​[[startup-sh|startup.sh]] that runs airodump in the background and starts the python script +
- +
-  * python script [[motors-scanner-test-1|motor-scanner.py]] +
- +
-==== development ==== +
- +
-a simple [[2linearmotors-code|arduino code]] to test the motors, moves up and down with a delay of 3 seconds in between. +
- +
- +
-the [[extended-python-arduino-api|extended-python-arduino-prototyping-api]] firmware is uploaded on an arduino board and controlls are sent to it from python.  +
- +
-  * get the network traffic: +
- +
-parse a cvs from airodump, look for IVs column and print the values +
-> cat salzamt1009-01.csv | awk -F ","​ '​{print $11}'​ +
- http://www.backtrack-linux.org/forums/showthread.php?​t=15519 +
- +
-parse the airodump csv fileusing the python csv module +
- +
-<code python>​ +
-import csv +
- +
-scan=open(file.csv) +
-scanDict=csv.DictReader(scan,​ delimiter=','​) +
-</​code>​ +
- +
-from here, lookup the value for the #IVs +
- +
-<code python>​ +
-for adict in scanDict: +
-        if adict.has_key('​ # IV'​):​ +
-            data=adict.get('​ # IV') +
-            print data +
-</code> ​       +
- +
-  * choose the last edited .csv file in the current folder; +
- +
-this can be done using the subprocess module: +
- +
-<code python>​ +
-import subprocess +
- +
-listlasted=subprocess.Popen("​ls -ct1 | head -1". shell=True, stdout=subprocess.PIPE,​ stderr=subprocess.PIPE) +
-lasted=listlasted.communicate()[0].strip() +
-print lastedited +
-</code> +
- +
-  * calculate the next position of the motors based on the change in the number of packetsthis number is returned by the lookup() function that reads the last edited .csv file +
- +
-<code python>​ +
-newPackets=int(lookup(airodump)) +
-packetsDiff=newPackets-packet +
-</code> +
- +
-based on this difference, a position value is sent to the motors +
- +
-<code python>​ +
- if packetsDiff>​10:​ +
-        newPosition=position+2 +
-        print '​should stretch',​ newPosition +
-        linearone.write(newPosition) +
-        time.sleep(0.3)  +
-        lineartwo.write(newPosition) +
-        time.sleep(0.3) +
-elif packetsDiff<​=0:​ +
-        newPosition=position-1 +
-        print '​should shrink',​ newPosition +
-        linearone.write(newPosition),​ lineartwo.write(newPosition) +
-</​code>​ +
- +
-  * the full python script is available [[motors-scanner-test-1|here]] ​     +
- +
-  * the whole process is finally wrapped in an automatic startup script, ​ [[startup-sh|startup.sh]] +
-           +
