In this chapter, we’ll develop a diozero-based device library based on what you learned in earlier chapters. I’ve chosen a device commonly used in robotics, a DC motor controller, and, more narrowly, one accessed via serial I/O. That said, the chapter covers topics applicable to the development of a device library for any type of device using any form of base I/O and thus establishes significant context for later chapters. So, you should at least browse this chapter, even if your project doesn’t target robotics, doesn’t use ...
