let alpha 1 dream a dream

1. The Robot we've sent by post can be used directly. I have installed all components and pushed this repo into local.
2. First, you must find someway to get use ssh to connecte to the pi 3 on the robot. Maybe you choose to use an enthernet cable connect pi3 with your router, anyway, find a way to connect the pi inside the robot.

   User:pi
   Passwd: alpha-dad
   

3. Once you connect this pi, you can use command bellow.

cd ~/alpha-dad/bin  

This is where contains python programs.

python takePhotos.py  

Take some photos with the camera module on the robot's head.

python dad.py  

This will last for a long time, and maybe you loose connection with pi, because this process needs lots of resource, so that your pi will get into a state like sleep. Be patient, you'd better have a drink.

sudo python conVideo.py

This will convert photos into a small video, which can be found in the alpha-dad/video directory.

Then you can download this video with scp.

1. First, install Google Dream on your pi3(only). Read this artical
2. Clone this repo into your home directory. Be sure your pi is connecting with internet.

cd ~
git clone https://github.com/trevery/alpha-dad.git

3. do as above 'The robot we've sent'

example：

raspistill -o frame%04d.jpg -tl 10000 -t 60000

This will take one photo per 10 s and will last for 60 s Photos will be saved as frame0000.jpg frame0001.jpg.

frame.findHaarFeatures('face') will return a list contain faces' x,y coordinates.

and i wrote a python script named faceFilter.py to find if there are face in the photo.

pi@alpha_pi3:~/deepdream/PsyCam $ python psycam.py -i imgDir.jpg

I have wrote an alias for this python command. alias dream='python ~/deepdream/PsyCam/psycam.py

While, I found only in the directory '~/deepdream/PsyCam', this command can execute rightly. In other words, if you in ~ directory, it will throw fault.

sudo apt-get install libav-tools

avconv -r 10 -i frame%03d.jpg -r 10 -vcodec libx264 timelapse.mp4
