Hardware Release - OSR2 Buttons
Added 2023-11-09 12:59:46 +0000 UTCHi Guys,
I'm aware that it's been a long time since I put out a hardware release for you to have a play with!
This is a very basic button mount for the OSR2 that is designed to sit on the opposite side of the OSR2 to the pitch module, in place of the spacers. It allows four buttons to be connected to the A0 pin on the Romeo. This is currently only for the Arduino-based OSR2s, though I will also be adding these buttons to the ESP32 firmware. it requires a bit of soldering to get this working, but it's just wires and 10k resistors.
It is held together using 3x M3x12mm countersunk screws.
Have a play and tell me what you think. I expect I will be designing more and better button mounts in the future!

Dear author, answer the question. At least one external application supports receiving Tcode in the opposite direction. And more specifically, what to do with these buttons if they cannot be used for their intended purpose and they send Tcode to nowhere and to no one. For me, buttons are simply necessary, but not for an external program, but for controlling the robot itself. What is really missing is the Start button - a smooth lowering down and enabling Tcode receiving, and the second assignment of the same Break button, for sharply raising the fleshlight to the highest point and stopping Tcode receiving until the button is pressed again (Start action). Also, there is not enough manual mode, when you can move it by pressing keys, for example, when idle in a script. And preset scenarios with their switching buttons. I printed and assembled a block of buttons, but didn’t find any use... But this gave me these thoughts.
