Stepper Motor Code for Arduino (Back to the Future)
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
Im a prop builder and I'm in need of a skilled Arduino programmer to assist with a stepper motor project. I have an Arduino Uno and a CNC shield, and need help in programming them to make my stepper motor move back and forth at different times. Im building the opening scene can opener in Back to the Future. marker 2:20 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3isQI0nXQRE
This is for my cat Daisy, I want to make an automated can opener because Back to the Future is my all-time favorite movie and it would be so fun to make and have.
I started 3d modeling it back in college for a project but COVID ruined my class and never got to learn Arduino... I have pretty much all the pieces and mostly figured out how everything should work.
The key requirements are:
- Configuring Arduino Uno and CNC shield to properly interface with the stepper motor
- Writing code that allows the motor to move back and forth, stop, go and have a timer when to do that
- Implementing code that will allow for automatic control based on switch input possibly?
- Integrating limit switches to control the motor's movement
Ideal skills and experience for this project include:
- Proficiency in Arduino programming
- Experience with stepper motors and CNC shields
- Understanding of sensor input integration
- Knowledge of limit switches and how to implement them in Arduino
- Strong communication skills to guide me through the process and explain the code
I'm looking for someone who can not only write the necessary code but also help me understand and troubleshoot it. Your assistance will be invaluable in bringing this project to life.
