Raspberry Pi Python Drivers Released on SwitchDoc

One of the big problems with adding sensors to your Raspberry Pi is finding Python drivers for those devices.  There seems to be a lot of Arduino drivers available, but there are lots of devices that don’t have Python drivers for the Raspberry Pi.  When we run into a device that doesn’t have the kind of Python driver we want, we tend to build it ourselves and then release it into the open source goodness zone.

With the release of the TCS34725 Color Sensor Drivers, we now have nine pure Python drivers on SwitchDoc.com.  All of these drivers are on github.com/switchdoclabs.
