Change Release Notes
This is the first release of the ARC Designer software for Raspberry Pi, and more specifically, MONO. I'll create a more detailed tutorial on how to setup and run the ARC on Raspberry Pi. In the meantime, it can be downloaded and executed with mono...
- You have to install the Mono framework, which is pretty easy...
sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-get install mono-runtime
- Next, untar and extract the download...
tar xvfz ~/ARC_Pi.tar.gz
- Change into the directory of ARC...
cd ~/ARC Pi
- Execute the application with...
mono ./ARC.exe
*Note: there are a number of feature limitations on the Rasberry Pi version Vs. Microsoft Windows. These limitations are no Blockly, no WiiMote, no Speech Recognition/Synthesis, and no 3d robot designer. Plugins are supported long as they do not use unsupported libraries. These are features out of our control, however.
