A Node-RED node capable of establishing connection with Sphero droid and sending commands to it
This Node connects using bluetooth to your Sphero droid. Therefore it is required to install some dependencies in your system prior to installing this Node. Refer to sphero and noble for more information
Run the following command in your Node-RED user directory - typically ~/.node-red
npm i node-red-contrib-sphero
Or install it globally
sudo npm i -g node-red-contrib-sphero
Simple flow with inject nodes to make droid change color randomly, move, turn around and stop
Note: when adding or changing droid connection (UUID) it is required to restart Node-RED
