Hi all,
Just curious if anyone here is experimenting with stepper motors controlled by Edge AI systems (like Raspberry Pi + AI accelerators, Jetson Nano, etc.). I'm exploring the idea of using local AI models for adaptive motor control — for example, adjusting speed or torque in real time based on sensor input, without relying on a cloud connection.
Some use cases I’m thinking of:
Smart 3D printers that self-optimize print parameters
Industrial robots with more responsive motor control
Predictive maintenance based on motion patterns
Has anyone tried this? Any tips on frameworks or libraries that work well for real-time AI + motor control?
Would love to hear your thoughts or see your projects!
