Problems to start / instantiate ErgoJr (without pi camera) in python

hey @nbh,

A good way to identify a problem is to look the logs page (go to the homepage and select “what happened”)

because is so easy :wink: : just put your code in a notebook and run the notebook. You can also create ‘a primitive’ and run this via poppy monitor, but this is more complexe but …

Moreover, your main problem is that you can not instantiate your robot!

I think, you have unplug a picam ! If you have turn off this (in configure the robot) it’s good! But, it works only for the api (snap and monitor) and not for python!
two solution:

  • plug your cam
  • add camera=“dummy” when you instantiate your robot like : poppy=PoppyErgoJr(camera="dummy")

If it still does not work, please give us the code error on the logs page.
If it work, please, give us a feedback :wink:

thank you.
