Cabled App Backend

Welcome to the backend repository for the Cabled App. This backend is designed to support the Cabled mobile application by providing real-time data processing, live updates, and control over the cable wakeboard park system.

Overview

This backend is written in Python and runs on a Raspberry Pi. It serves multiple purposes:

• API and Webserver: Hosts an API that feeds data to users and provides live updates as data changes.
• Robotics Control: Connects the Raspberry Pi to multiple motors, switches, and drivers to control the cable system.
• Graphical User Interface: Provides a GUI built in Python using Kivy, utilizing the MVC architecture to give the operator complete control over the cable system.

Features

API and Webserver

• Hosts a FastAPI to provide data to the Cabled mobile app.
• Processes incoming data from the judges' app and updates rider statistics instantly.
• Provides real-time updates to users as data changes.

CableOps Control

• Connects to multiple motors, switches, and drivers to control the cable system.
• Enables precise control of the cable system components.
• Designed ready for AI and Machine Learning implementation.

Graphical User Interface

• Built in Python using Kivy.
• Utilizes the MVC architecture to separate the concerns of the application.
• Provides a user-friendly interface for the operator to control the cable system.

Installation

Prerequisites

• Python 3.6+
