(Tutorial written by Mohammed Ibrahim and Kevin Ortman)

 

The following Guide is still in development. You can follow our discussions about it here:

http://forum.realityeditor.org/t/first-step-to-install-open-hybrid-on-raspberry-pi

 

You need:

  • Raspberrry Pi (Tested version: B+ 1.2, B 1.1, 2) or Raspberrry Pi Zero
  • Raspbian OS Wheezy or Jessie
  • Internet connection for the PI (For using the Vuforia portal)
  • The Pi and the Reality Editor need to be connected to the same local Network
  • Object Server Code

Steps:

  1. Use NOOBS to install the base Raspian image.
  2. Update the system software.
    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get upgrade -y
  3. Remove the default nodejs instance and replace it with v0.12 or higher.
    sudo apt-get remove nodejs
    curl -sLS https://apt.adafruit.com/add | sudo bash
    sudo apt-get install -y node
  4. Get the latest OpenHybrid Object code and download dependencies
    git clone https://github.com/openhybrid/object.git
    cd object
    npm install
  5. Run the OpenHybrid Object code
    node server.js

A this point, you should be able to navigate to port 8080 on your device and find the Object dashboard.
