motor control

About this tag
Discussions tagged with motor control on WindowsForum.com cover programming and hardware projects involving motor-driven systems. One thread describes using Perl on Windows XP to modify coordinate lists for a CNC router's X, Y, and Z axis motors, focusing on offline text manipulation. Another thread details Project Jellybean, a Kinect-controlled lounge chair with omni-directional wheels, motor controllers, and a battery system, built as a proof-of-concept using Microsoft technologies. These posts highlight practical applications of motor control in CNC machining and robotics, with emphasis on Windows-based programming and hardware integration.

    Windows XP Windows XP programming

    I did some Perl programming for simple text modifications. Mi CNC router reads a list of numbers and moves its motors accordingly (X, Y and Z axes). I need to change some of these numbers. My Perl program does that. But I would like to do the same in Windows (modify a simple text list). How can...
