Builds on StandardFirmata to add additional functionality.

advancedfirmata's Issues

add stepper motor acceleration

Add acceleration and deceleration to step sequence.

http://fab.cba.mit.edu/classes/MIT/961.09/projects/i0/Stepper_Motor_Speed_Profile.pdf

The trick is figuring out how to do this without using a timer because timers are used by pwm, delay and servo. This leaves 2 unknown variables in the equations referenced in the resources above.

error: 'class FirmataClass' has no member named 'write'

When trying to compile AdvancedFirmata in a fresh install of the Arduino IDE (Mac OS X, 1.0.5) I get the following error. My ~/libraries folder is empty and I can load the other provided Firmatas (StandardFirmata for example) just fine. What am I doing wrong? Thanks!

AdvancedFirmata.ino: In function 'void sysexCallback(byte, byte, byte*)':
AdvancedFirmata:561: error: 'class FirmataClass' has no member named 'write'
AdvancedFirmata:562: error: 'class FirmataClass' has no member named 'write'

add pulse in/out support

This is tricky because the Arduino pulseIn implementation is blocking. Also how to create a pulse out without using a delay and when there are no more timers available?

Add tone support

This is an easy add to AdvancedFirmata because it wraps an existing Arduino core library.

add shift in/out support

Subject: Arduino Yun and node.js, a good read

Subject: Arduino Yun and node.js, a good read

After spending 2 weeks working through lots of challanges with Arduino Yun and Node.js, I put together a massive article with lots of source code to cover in depth Arduino Yun and Node.js.

I also provide a pre-built binary image that you can bun onto your own Micro SD (instruction included) for the perfect Yun / Node.js setup.

I developed a serial Watchdog (for when serial bridge doesn't connect), socket.io client using binary ws for the Yun, figured our node.js live remote debug and more...

I just had too many good things to not share it with everyone, so here it is, ENJOY and please comment:

(PS sorry that has to open an issue, but no other way to post on GitHub).

test multiple stepper motors

Need to test with multiple stepper motors. So far have only tested with one.
