With the completion of the main board for the Stirring Man, the electronics for this project are now largely done. The photo shows the mechanism from the bottom. Once again I’ve used a PSoC5 as the controller and you can see the PSoC prototype board mounted on the main board. The stepper drive board is not yet mounted on the main board. An aluminum “spider” is used to support the sliprings centered over the turntable to feed the wiring from the main board to the turntable.
With the completion of the mainboard, it’s on to writing code. A good deal of this is already done, since I’ve used the stepper drivers, neo-pixels and the same servo in previous projects, so the low level code can be reused.
