Goal: Use a joystick to control a stepper motor's speed and direction. The joystick input determines motor rotation speed and direction.

The Joystick module is similar to analog joysticks found in gamepads. It is made by mounting two potentiometers at a 90 degrees angle. The potentiometers are connected to a short stick centered by ...

⇒ UART Configuration : One of the most powerful aspects of the TMC2209 is its single-wire UART interface. With UART, you can configure motor current, microstepping resolution, operating modes, and ...

You can create a release to package software, along with release notes and links to binary files, for other people to use. Learn more about releases in our docs.

In this project, we create a joystick-controlled laser by connecting two servos to a joystick and using this setup as a pan-and-tilt controller for a laser pointer. The following is excerpted from the ...

It’s fair to say that building electronic gadgets is easier now than it ever has been in the past. With low-cost modular components, there’s often just a couple dozen lines of code and a few jumper ...

Rotating a solar panel towards a light source (eg the sun) with return to 'morning' position after sundown. This project makes a stepper motor control the position of a solar panel to make it turn to ...

Arduino’s brand-new Esplora microcontroller, packed with prebuilt sensors and features, could indicate a move for the DIY electronics company toward a wider segment of the microcontroller market.
