HeadpatVR firmware

Firmware for ESP32 microcontroller to accept signals over WiFi network and move servo motors

Works with HeadpatVR server that accepts OSC signals from VRChat

Prerequisites

You need PlatformIO IDE to compile and upload it to your esp8266 controller Installation instructions can be found here: https://platformio.org/install/ide?install=vscode

Configuration

Create the file local.ini with the following parameters:

[wifi]
SSID = your-wifi-ssid
PASSWORD = YourWifi#Pa$$W0Rd

[servo]
SERVO_ROTATION_ANGLE = 120

replace your-wifi-ssid and YourWifi#Pa$$W0Rd to your wifi SSID and password
It's recommended to keep the same rotation angle if your servo motor supports it

Build and upload

You can find the "Build" and "Upload" buttons in the bottom bar
Once local.ini file is ready, click on "Build". Once the build process is finished, click on "Upload"

Warning

Disconnect at least one motor from the board before uploading firmware. Otherwise, the power supply over USB will be unstable and uploading may fail
