Control a Raspberry Pi Sense HAT LED Display

Work in progress. Your mileage may vary.

Why yet another Sense HAT library?

The state of affairs in Dec 2015 offers the following alternatives.

python-sense-hat

First, there’s the original library supported by the Raspberry team (https://github.com/RPi-Distro/python-sense-hat). Use this one for best user experience. One feature is that it is written in Python. This is a drawback if you want to be plain Javascript.

nodeimu

A Javascript wrapper for RTIMULib2 (https://github.com/rupnikj/nodeimu). It does supports gravity, air pressure, humidity and temperature, but not the matrix LED.

raspberry-sensor-sense-hat

From https://github.com/teuteuguy/raspberry-sensor-sense-hat. Supports the matrix LED, but only via embedded python shell script escapes.
