Connecting a Raspberry Pi to E-Prime

[Denis Cousineau]

The Raspberry Pi is a very cheap and very convenient computer which is specifically made to connect sensors and motors. Because of its versatility, it can very easily be used to monitor external events with just a few lines of code (the Raspberry Pi comes with Python).

There exists strength sensors, motion sensors, sound sensors, etc. all compatible with the Raspberry Pi.

I was wondering if anyone ever made a package so that package calls between the Raspberry Pi and E-Prime could be performed. It could for example be used to send a "trigger signal" to the Raspberry Pi. It could --as an example-- be programmed to start a timer and monitor some sensor. As soon as an event is recorded on the sensor, it records the relevant information. Then E-Prime, through another package call, could request these information so that they are logged as part of the data.

If you have any relevant code, I believe it would be of interest to this group.

Denis.

Also interested in this question!  This might (?) be a means of running EPrime on Linux?

I did this with a rpi and psychopy, also an Arduino interfacing with eprime through a serial port with a rpi GUI.

It was a few years ago, but I'll look around and see if I still have the code.
