Electronic Speed Controller

Description

The Electronic Speed Controller (ESC) is necessary to control the BLDC motors used for the wheels

Requirements

  1. Bidirectional Control
  • The motors need to run both forwards and backwards. ESC must be bidirectional
  1. Customization
  • Ability to configure acceleration curves and braking is necessary
  1. Communication Interface
  • The ESCs should accept control inputs from an ESP32-WROVER-IE (e.g. PWM, UART, SPI)

  • The ESC should provide feedback which can be used to improve the control precision. (e.g. EMF)
