Improving the prototype

15.03.2021 -  

So far everything is working, our prototype is good and complete, but here is a to-do-list what we need to improve:

  • the stepper library we used is not interrupt driven 
    • implement our own interrupt driven library with acceleration and all the good stuff
  • we've got a better stepper driver with way more sub steps for smoother movement 
    • make that thing work
  • a real pulley instead of that hacked 3d printed not really fitting 
  • Arduino is too slow 
    • introducing STM32F103 → 72 Mhz (9 times as fast and with way more features) ... much better
  • actual brackets instead of hot glue ... so that it then qualifies as production ready ^^ !!
  • mount it to our awesome table
