Python API
Hello, We are currently utilizing Synthiams ARC software to manage the movements of our robots head. I would like to know if it is possible to write a Python script within ARC to control the blink rate of the robots eyelids. We have servos installed that are responsible for moving the eyelids. Thank you!
