Robonova HITEC HSR-8498HB servo driver and test software

Post by asmeenk12 » Wed Jul 26, 2017 8:27 pm

Hello Guys

I created a driver for the HITEC HSR-8498HB servo in HMI mode.

Now I can control all 16 servos's of the RoboNova robot using the 2 uarts of the ESP32 platform.

Note that I used a firmware hack (enabling inverting TX and RX of the uart)

Long term goal is to control the robonova via ROS, and create a ROS driver which communicates over WIFI to the Robonova.

Anybody interested in joining?
