You can do some pretty cool things with PySerial. For example, we wrote a module to implement the USB I/O 24's (an IO board) API in Python which uses PySerial.

You can do some pretty cool things with PySerial. For example, we wrote a module to implement the USB I/O 24's (an IO board) API in Python which uses PySerial. There is also a RelayBoard module which sits on top of that one. We wrote this while working on an automation (namely opening doors) project in our lab (NLON Labs).
