Here are the steps to make the Sense HAT sensor work with a virtual environment.
+ +Install SenseHAT package. Switch to the homeassistant_venv directory and activate the virtual environment.
$ sudo su -s /bin/bash homeassistant
+$ source /srv/homeassistant/homeassistant_venv/bin/activate
+Install the sense-hat module.
$ pip3 install sense-hat
+Please be patient, this will take a long while…
+ +Type exit to quit out of the homeassistant_venv back to your pi environment. As all of the following steps should be under the pi user environment.
Install the RTIMU Python module:
+ +$ pip3 install rtimulib
+Add symlink to RTIMU in homeassistant_venv directory. Create a symlink using the following command:
$ ln -s /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/RTIMU.cpython-34m-arm-linux-gnueabihf.so /srv/homeassistant/homeassistant_venv/lib/python3.4/
+Add homeassistant user to the input and the i2c groups.
$ sudo addgroup homeassistant input
+$ sudo addgroup homeassistant i2c
+Reboot Raspberry Pi to apply changes.
+ +$ sudo reboot
