About

The short-term goal is to build an automated machine for grid beam production.

The long-term goal is to provide a (real-time interrupt-driven) actor-based foundation for robotic automation or CNC machine control.

If you're here and like what's happening, please give this a star and say hi! 👋

Features

• Minimal
  • Designed for no-std environments
• Extensible
  • Setup your robot with your own actuators with your own names
    • E.g. Isn't limited to only x, y, z linear axes
• Command system (like G-Code)
  • Run a sequence of commands (one at a time)
  • Run setup commands at beginning and/or teardown commands at end (in parallel)
• Actuators:
  • Led
    • Actions:
      • Set { is_on }
      • Blink { duration }
  • Linear Axis
    • Drivers: Stepper
    • Actions:
      • MoveRelative { max_acceleration, distance }
      • MoveAbsolute { max_acceleration, position }
      • Home { max_acceleration, back_off_distance }
  • Spindle
    • Drivers:
      • JmcHsv57
    • Actions:
      • Set(On { rpm })
      • Set(Off)
  • Relay (Pneumatic actuator)
• Sensors
  • Input switch
    • Button
    • Limit switch
  • Rotary encoder
  • Linear encoder
• Interfaces
  • Physical controls
  • JSON-RPC
  • Web
