Please note that GitHub does not include submodules in the archive, therefore you should download the AutomationShield_v0.4.1.tar file to include the necessary submodules. The files below under the Source Code name (zip and tar.gz) do not include these external repositories. Please refer to the readme.md file on how to initialize submodules in your own Git clone, if you prefer this method.
Summer Release - New shields and versions supported
This is the fourth major pre-release of the AutomationShield library. The annual major release comes after an academic year's worth of work on the AutomationShield initiative.
Various API support of BOBShield and PressureShield have been added, along with drivers for the new MagnetoShield and FloatShield hardware (R4). The API for the improved hardware should be backwards compatible. The release contains numerous new examples and other features. Please consider the list of commits to learn about the added features.
