 "title": "Run the synthetic fly-brain demo without hardware",
 "page_title": "How to run the synthetic fly-brain demo without hardware with Flybrain Robot Bridge",
 "summary": "Clone the repo and watch the mock neural backend turn synthetic frames into motor commands.",
 "who": "A developer or student curious about camera-to-robot signal flow who has no robot, camera or connectome data on hand.",
 "problem": "Understanding how vision, IMU and motor signals move through the bridge is hard without running it.",
 "outcome": "A terminal run of 300 synthetic frames showing motion, looming, IMU freshness, motor activity, commands and watchdog state, with nothing sent to a robot.",
 "steps": [
  "Clone the repo with `git clone https://github.com/Himas1211/flybrain-robot-bridge.git` and enter the folder with `cd flybrain-robot-bridge`.",
  "Create and activate a virtual environment with `python3.11 -m venv .venv` and `source .venv/bin/activate`.",
  "Install the project with `pip install -e \".[dev]\"`.",
  "Run the default demo with `python -m flybrain_robot.main --backend mock --synthetic`.",
  "Check that the run ends after about 300 frames and that no network or camera was needed."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Clone https://github.com/Himas1211/flybrain-robot-bridge, create a Python 3.11 virtual environment, install it with pip install -e \".[dev]\", and run python -m flybrain_robot.main --backend mock --synthetic. Report the final motor commands and watchdog state. Verify that the run finishes without opening a network connection or camera.",

 "requirements": [
  "Python 3.11 or newer",
  "git and a terminal",
  "A webcam or a video file, optional, for live or recorded input",
  "A calibrated robot, network link and independent motor power cutoff, only if you plan to use --send"
