brickbeam 0.1.0

Community driven IR Transmitter implementation of the LEGO® Power Functions (LPF) protocol powered by the modern Linux, written in Rust.
Documentation
//! # Example: Combo (Combo Speed Remote Controller)
//!
//! This example demonstrates using the `ComboSpeedRemoteController` (Combo PWM protocol)
//! to drive two outputs at different speeds simultaneously. In this scenario, we assume both
//! a “red” and “blue” motor are connected to the same IR receiver on Channel One. We set
//! them running in different directions, then stop them.
//!
//! **Hardware setup instructions**:
//! See the project README.md at: [https://github.com/azachar/brickbeam#enabling-ir-on-the-raspberry-pi](https://github.com/azachar/brickbeam#enabling-ir-on-the-raspberry-pi)
//!
//! **Usage**:
//! ```bash
//! cargo run --example combo --features cir
//! ```
