Spider firmware

Firmware for hexapod robot based on STM32F4 (STM32F4DISCOVERY board)

Functions

Input

  • USB gamepad. Both my dualshock-like gamepads work in second "Mode".
  • External commands from USART4. Under development! You can implement your own protocol. Works great for HC-05 + smartphone.

Motor control

  • Legacy control via precalculated tables. This part was ported from old AVR firmware. Stable. Main type of control for now.
  • Onboard math. New feature. Under development

UARTs

UART TX RX Function
USART3 PB10 PB11 Flashing via DFU
USART4 PA0 PC11 Command channel

I use DFU because ST-LINK on my Discovery is dead. It's more like "reserved pins".
Second UART is for external commands. This part is currently under development.
