Ok, I'm thinking of putting my mind to use and the weather has got me thinking about a couple of possible designs for heavy equipment. While this would be my first machine built for this purpose, I have experience in several robotic builds. I already have some ideas about what kind of drives and motion range I want to use, but I need ideas for controls and automation. What do you ladies think? What kind of controls do you think would be easiest to use while the machine is running. Dials? Buttons? App Controlled?
Also, wouldn't mind finding some test subjects together once I get a machine or two off the bench.
