Looks interesting. How are you planning to integrate scipy tools? Is the idea to collect data for predictive services that can then control physical devices?

I'm interested enough to try it out, but I'm not sure exactly how to get started. How do I install it on my raspi? I didn't see a README in the github repo and it wasn't immediately obvious to me.

Hi, johnymontana!

The idea is to have the SciPy tools available in the IPython environment. So from that environment, you can get readings from sensors, and then directly use this as an input to one of the many algorithms available in scikit-learn or scipy.

It's still at an early stage, and the RPi image is not fully ready. I believe it will be in a few weeks. If you can sign up to our mailing list though, I'd love to keep you in the loop. It's on the bottom of the page.

Thanks for the feedback!
