It’s little secret that stepper motors are everywhere in FDM 3D printers, but there’s no real reason why you cannot take another type of DC motor like a brushless DC (BLDC) motor and use that instead.
It’s a common ritual: whipping out those calipers or similar measuring devices to measure part of a physical object that we’re trying to transfer into a digital model in an application like FreeCAD.
An Arduino controls the servo motors while the camera system provides visual feedback for autonomous tracking. This project demonstrates embedded programming, servo motor control, - GitHub - ...
