🚀 Features

🎮 Control & Interface

  • Real-time 3D Visualization: Interactive 3D representation of your robotic arm using Three.js.
  • Direct Arduino Control: Connect directly to your Arduino board via USB using the Web Serial API.
  • Gamepad Support: Control servos intuitively using a connected gamepad or controller.
  • Keyboard Shortcuts: Quick access to essential functions (Play, Record, Stop, etc.).

🎬 Sequencer & Automation

  • Timeline Editor: Create complex movement sequences with a multi-track timeline.
  • Record & Playback: Record manual movements in real-time and play them back.
  • Save & Load: Save your sequences and project configurations to JSON or export data as CSV.
  • Arduino Export: Generate .ino code based on your sequences to run standalone on the Arduino.

🎨 Customization

  • Theming: Choose from various visual themes to suit your style.
  • Environment: Customize the background and floor visuals.
  • Custom Meshes: Upload your own .obj 3D models for each servo part to match your physical build.
  • Advanced Servo Configuration:
    • Dynamic Number of Servos: Add as many servos as your project requires.
    • Servo Modes: Choose between Positional (standard 0-180°) or Continuous (360° rotation) modes.
    • Fine-Tuning: Set specific Min/Max limits, start angles, and hardware PINs for each servo.
    • Hardware Inversion: Easily invert servo direction via software to match your physical build.
    • Component Roles: Label servos as Base, Joint, Wrist, or Claw for better organization.

🛠️ Installation & Usage

  1. Clone the repository:

    git clone https://github.com/yourusername/arduino-arm-controller.git
  2. Open the application:

    • Simply open index.html in a modern web browser (Chrome, Edge, or Opera recommended for Web Serial API support).
    • Note: For full functionality, it is recommended to run this on a local web server (e.g., using Live Server in VS Code).
  3. Connect your Arduino:

    • Connect your Arduino to your computer via USB.
    • Click the ARDUINO status button in the header to select the COM port and establish a connection.
