Open Source Python Hardware Platforms

The Hewlett-Packard Linux Imaging and Printing Project provides a unified single and multi-function connectivity solution for Linux. For support and help, please visit https://launchpad.net/hplip

The Open IPMI project aims to develop an open code base to allow access to platform information using Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI).

The Linux GPIB Package is a support package for GPIB (IEEE 488.2) hardware. The package contains a development environment consisting of a GPIB library written in C, kernel driver modules, and bindings for several other languages.

Gammu is a cellular manager for mobile phones/modems. It contains libraries and functions for ringtones,logos,phonebook,SMS,etc. (used by external software), a command line version (with backup/restore) and SMS gateway (with MySQL and PostgreSQL supp

Please note that OWFS source code, and all Issue/Tickets/merge requests have now been moved to https://github.com/owfs/owfs/. Developer mailing lists will still be kept at Sourceforge. ---- OWFS -- 1-Wire file system. Use the Dallas 1-Wire and iButton chips with standard filesystem commands. Create temperature loggers. Monitor everything. OWHTTPD -- same system, only used as a light weight web server. OWFS is also ported to embedded routers, Mac OSX and Windows. Basically you can use these inexpensive little sensors and other chips with very simple wiring to sense and control the physical environment. The interface is very flexible -- everything from a web browser, to read and writing directly to the chip's "file" to integrating with your programs -- even over the internet. There is a growing number of 1-wire sensors: temperature, voltage, humidity, light, ultraviolet, pressure, thermisters, thermocouples, programmable microcontrollers, relays, lights, LCD panels, etc

I-Nex is an application that gathers information for hardware components available on your system and displays it using an user interface similar to the popular Windows tool CPU-Z.

This is a group of people (feel free to join us), developing small programs. We're mainly develop the program/script, Syscriptor, that displays information about your hardware and software.

Open HPI is an open source implementation of the SA Forum's Hardware Platform Interface (HPI). HPI provides an abstracted interface to managing computer hardware, typically for chassis and rack based servers. The new location for the project is https://github.com/open-hpi/openhpi

The Hewlett-Packard Co. Linux Inkjet Driver Project has moved!

A Linux program/library for interfacing the Velleman k8055 USB I/O board

A project for a highly scalable protocol and framework and a collection of software tools for m2m (machine to machine communication) and IoT Internet of Things. The programs here works on Windows and Linux and are based around VSCP, The Very Simple Control Protocol. Repository is here: https://github.com/grodansparadis/vscp_software and here https://github.com/grodansparadis/vscp_firmware

Parapin makes it easy to write code under Linux that controls individual pins on a PC parallel port. This kind of control is very useful for electronics projects that use the parallel port as a generic digital I/O interface (instead of as a printer port)

Open source, cross platform drivers and function library for the NovInt Falcon Haptic Controller. These drivers are not produced by Novint Technologies, Inc. and do not come with any warranty as to their correctness or usage.

A portable library to access braille displays.

Cpuspeedy is simple and easy to use program which allows you to change the clock speed and voltage of the CPUs on the fly, using the Linux's CPUFreq driver. Use it and you should save battery consumption and reduce the temperature of your laptop.

MOST4Linux provides a MOST kernel driver supporting synchronous data transfer for PCI hardware and userspace programs to test the driver. The driver can be compiled for Linux 2.6 or for the RTDM which works for the real-time extensions RTAI and Xenomai.

GXSM -- Gnome X Scanning Microscopy: A multi-channel image and vector-probe data acquisition and visualization system designed for SPM techniques (STM,AFM..), but also SPA-LEED/LEED/LEEM data analysis. A plug-in interface allows any user add-on data-processing and special hardware and instrument support. Latest: NC-AFM and related explorative methods as SQDM can be configured. High-Speed external PAC-PLL hardware option with digital DSP link. Based on several hardware options it supports a commercially available DSP hardware and provided also Open Source Code for all the low level signal processing tasks and instrument controls in a most flexible and adaptable manner. All latest software is available via SVN only or Live Demo/Install CD: http://www.ventiotec.de/linux/GXSM-Linux.iso

Driver support for 3D Controller Hardware. We hope to support SDL Input, DirectInput, and other major controller API's including game consoles and embedded systems.
