    Controlling Electromagnets with a Microcontroller, Arduino or Raspberry Pi

    So I had another idea about how to achieve this, but I don't know if it will allow me to manually move the stick at all. So the idea is to put a disk at the base of the stick and underneath the disk put four of these. Then I could put power to specific ones to push against the disk, moving the...

    Controlling Electromagnets with a Microcontroller, Arduino or Raspberry Pi

    Hey FvM, How familiar are you with the active controls stick you mentioned? You said they would be used with servo motors. Do you think it is feasible to build something on a much smaller scale in terms of size, power and accuracy? Do you know how they design them to "generate little force...

    Controlling Electromagnets with a Microcontroller, Arduino or Raspberry Pi

    Hey, thanks for the ideas bradthRad. It's at least hopeful that you were able to get to produce more power. I wouldn't need the stick to move very much. As for the resistance, it is a nice to have, but not really necessary. The question I have is, using this meathod, how acurate do you think...

    Controlling Electromagnets with a Microcontroller, Arduino or Raspberry Pi

    Thanks for all the help guys. I've been researching all your suggestions and I'm not sure if this will be able to do what I want. I am trying to put together a working prototype for a personal project of mine. I was wondering if you guys think that elecromagnets will even be a good fit for this...

    Controlling Electromagnets with a Microcontroller, Arduino or Raspberry Pi

    Hello and thanks for the replies. You are correct that I have not fully defined the magnetic hardware as I'm not really sure what it is I will need. I don't have a full understanding yet of what components are required and what does what. I am just starting to learn this by researching online...

    Controlling Electromagnets with a Microcontroller, Arduino or Raspberry Pi

    Hello internet strangers, I was hoping to get some advice from some electronics experts. I am a software engineer with a background in C/C++ but electromagnets are new to me. Here's what I am trying to accomplish. I was hoping to get some advice on how I can achieve this and where to start to...
