I have the Anki Vector for a few days, I wanted to use only the CTRL App so Vector speaks a written sentence. But that did not cut with the app (see older question on my profile)
Now I want to program the whole thing via the laptop (Windows Vista)
I've never done anything like that, I just read that you have to install this Python application, etc. But I have no idea how I should proceed further.
I've already read through that, but that's explained so complicated.

If you do not just want to get ready-made scripts, you should probably learn Python first. Currently you have downloaded the necessary development tools for this programming language (and hopefully also completely installed, otherwise look again in the following link). I have already listed enough learning resources.

As far as I have seen, the articles there contain simple step-by-step instructions. So, can it be that you do not speak English or have problems with this language yet? That would actually be somewhat problematic. Finding German sources will certainly be more difficult.
The articles from your link, you have to say, are actually not beyond a hello world program, so you should also take a closer look at the other given sources (the https://developer.anki.com/vector / docs / downloads.html, the articles on the https://developer.anki.com/, you may find beginner tips in the forum, …).
Thank you for your detailed answer, now on the subject of English, the instructions from the link was automatically translated into German (at least the mobile version) so I had it easier because I have only basic knowledge of English.
To install: I downloaded and installed Python.
As well as the SDK downloaded for Vector. So far so good.
I then looked at then Youtube tutorials on SDK for Vector (
However, there's a problem in cmd or I add something wrong… Either I get the error message "file path not found" or it comes to a "syntax error".
Well I think if I have the first step the first time, the rest is a bit easier with the ready-made scripts.
The error messages are clear, only in which course / at which concrete step do they occur?
The gentleman in the tutorial can still refer to a different Python / SDK version and therefore have different folder names than you. So I hope you did not type it letter by letter.
Of course I do not have no. For whatever reason, my file had a different path to the download, after I went to Properties and copied from there it worked. I have now come to the last step. But that's exactly where it is now again. I always get the message "module not found", but if I go to every single destination folder to look for myself, the file exists.
Hmn, the error message is still determined something more detailed? In this context, I would first come only a problem with the folder structure in mind, perhaps this is not correct in your example project.
On the other hand, you've just rated my answer as the most helpful. So did you solve your problem yourself? If so, please give the solution or the cause here. I can well imagine that someday someone could have problems with Anki Vector again.
