STEP400 is a 4-axis stepper motor driver designed for art or design projects. STEP400 combines the following elements into one single board:
- Arduino Zero
- Ethernet shield
- Four stepper motor drivers
- Sensor inputs for homing and limiting
The current firmware is focused on working with Open Sound Control (OSC) via Ethernet, which is a common protocol for creative coding environments, like openFrameworks, Processing, Max, Unity, or Touch Designer.
Stepper driver chips are STMicroelectronics's powerSTEP01 which provide most of functionalities as a stepper driver.
