A pebble app to control robots from your wrist.

With very few lines of code, you can:

  • Send notifications to your pebble:
my.pebble.send_notification("Hello Pebble!");
  • Detect when a button is pushed:
my.pebble.on('button', function(data) {
  console.log("Button pushed: " + data);
});
  • Tap events awareness:
my.pebble.on('tap', function(data) {
  console.log("Tap event detected");
});
  • Get accelerometer data:
my.pebble.on('accel', function(data) {
  console.log(data);
});

Hello Pebble!
var Cylon = require("cylon");

Cylon.api({
  host: "0.0.0.0",
  port: "8080",
  ssl:  false
});

Cylon.robot({
  name: "pebble",

  connections: {
    pebble: { adaptor: "pebble" }

  devices: {
    pebble: { driver: "pebble" }
