Excellent work.

Grab the focaltouch driver from Franz Schaefers' repo at https://gitlab.com/mooond/t-watch2020-e ... altouch.py and copy it to your watch.

See https://github.com/russhughes/st7789_mp ... ch_draw.py for a simple drawing program example.

The docs I read say the blacklight is driven off the axp202c LDO2 and it's voltage is configurable between 1800mv (1.8v) and 3300mv (3.3v). I have not tried this but you could try using setLDO2Voltage to change the voltage driving the backlight. axp = axp202c.PMU() axp.enablePower(axp202c.AXP202_LDO...

My watch arrived and I was able to get a modified devbis driver to run on it.

I'm fairly new to PID controllers myself, if you are new to PID controllers as well, play with this PID Simulator to get a feel for how the different terms will affect performance. It helped me get a better feel for PID tuning. I was working on something similar using an Arduino and saw the same kin...

I used the Sphinx sphinx.ext.autodoc extension to document my last MicroPython project. In my conf.py file I added the projects lib directory using sys.path.insert and autodoc_mock_imports for the rest of the modules. sys.path.insert(0, os.path.abspath('../../lib')) # add my lib modules autodoc_mock...

Sounds like you have put a considerable amount of time and effort into developing this project. I notice you have also created great dos as well. If you were to guess the total hours to get your design to this standard how many hours do you think you have spent?? Thats hard to say. I wrote the firs...

Did you design all the hardware yourself?? Yes, but the idea is based on the Low-Cost, Arduino-Compatible Drawing Robot by MakersBox. After doing a class with MakersBox's design, that was scheduled for 2 hours but ended up running for 6, I wanted something easier and quicker to build for beginners....

That's quite impressive, not an easy thing to achieve that accuracy.

I like how you stamp it rather than try to drag the pen, is this how you get better accuracy??

Since the bot turns pretty slowly, I lift the pen during rotations to avoid leaving a blob of ink.

just really impressed by how well you documented this project. Also you seem to have gone the extra mile with the ui/font and preloaded fat image to download. Thank you. I was hoping the preloaded fat image would help beginners get started. I used an arduino version of the bot for classes I gave at...
