Hi!
I require your help regarding a problem I’m encountering.
I’m trying to get a Flowarm robot to run on a Chromebook - Dell 5910 2-in-1:
Lynxmotion AL5D-PLTW Robotic arm:
Flowarm:
Tried running application natively in windows without issue - was wondering if there’s support for Chrome:
We have a VDI solution we’re using but are encountering a challenge with USB-passthrough to the device.:
Thank you so much in advance for your help!
Hi @tzafrir_haring,
Welcome to the RobotShop community!
Unfortunately, as you can see in the product description, the Flowarm software only runs on Windows platforms.
That being said there are other options. We recommend that you check out the Python and .NET examples here.
Sincerely,
Thank you for responding scharette. I’m not really familiar with programming in Python or .NET. Can you provide more information in regards to how these could be used on a Chromebook? Thank you!
Since you mention have little experience with either I’d recommend using Python to get started.
It seems to be straightforward according to this video. You can find many other methods online with a quick search (ex: “chromebook python programming”).
Once you have the Python interpreter installed with its required components you can simply use any text editor to create scripts and run them. You can then download these two examples (#1 and #2) and try them out.
Sincerely,
