6 September 2024 A new attempt to get the 7-segments display to work, can I get it to work? This brings some hardware questions, apart from the programming. Click the image to watch the video. See also the blog.

5 April 2024 Deciding to add another 7-segments display to the circuit, in order to visualize the output for the servo-motor. This brings a few challenges in placing and wiring, not to forget coding. Click the image to watch the video. See also the blog.
2 February 2024 Using the ESP-IDF toolchain and C, I find that none of the motors is doing anything, quite unlike last time. Would checking the pulsewidthmodulation shignal with the oscilloscope reveal anything? What about voltage? In the end the solution is found for the motors. With a catch.

15 December 2023 Using the ESP-IDF toolchain and C, I decide to do a rewiring for the motors. First, the SG-90 servomotor and check the pwm signal, ground and voltage with an osciloscope. When that works out positive, I can also test wit the fischertechnik motor. Both are driven by pulse width modulation, but the SG-90 has power, ground and a pwm wire, where the fischertechnik motor only has signal and ground. But with the fischertechnik motor it doesn't matter which input is connected to signal or ground. Click the image to watch the video. See also the blog.
6 October 2023 Using the ESP-IDF toolchain and C. I need to do a code review because I want to be sure I have to correct idea of what the code actually does. After that checking signals with an osciloscope for the motors, and do tests. All of this raises questions. Click the image to watch the video. See also the blog.
