Hi all,
I was having some troubles brainstorming, and thought I'd give posting here a try. I am looking to make a digital project, that I will interface with my computer and control a stepper motor to proform a task. I do believe I will have to use gears, since from what i've read the stepper isn't all that powerful.
I was just curious what kind of projects people may have seen or built out there?? How difficult were they?? and if you built it what interface type did you use with your computer??
I've thought of a chair that can move up and down for your back, controlled from the computer, or a blind closer, not exactly sure what all can be done with it, and the limitations etc.
