 +====== Spin Coater ======
  
 +We are building a spin coater based on the MAASI spin coater, see: [[https://github.com/Labsmore/Maasi|Maasi]]. This seems to be the standard design for a spin coater for cheap.

 +=== Software & Electronics ===
 +Our current approach is, to not utilize the C-based firmware and go with a rewrite in Rust.
 +The Code can be checked at:[[https://git.fa-fo.de/rob/spinnyboy/src/branch/main/spinnyboy_rust|spinnyboy_rust]]. We first also tried to hack the Firmware from :[[https://github.com/JeroenDelcour/spincoater|JeroenDelcour/spincoater]], as featured on hackaday:[[https://hackaday.io/project/192036-diy-spin-coater|192036-diy-spin-coater]], although at least Rob felt uncomfortable with doing micropython and therefore chose a toolchain, which is based on rust.
 +
 +Currently, we can run the PWM of the AfroESC[[https://arduino.ua/docs/AfroESC30A.pdf|AfroESC]].
 +
 +Open ToDo's:
 +  * Make a PID+RPM-Sensor work. A Promising candidate for the PID is: [[https://github.com/Hs293Go/discrete_pid|discrete_pid]]
 +  * Make DSHOT Work, there is also a Crate for this![[https://crates.io/crates/esp-hal-dshot|esp-hal-dshot]]
 +
 +=== Display ===
 +We currently utilize a Nextion based stack, although this can be saved later on, as we could potentially provide an abstract implementation.
 +Each peripheral would need to just provide a Result, which either contains a command or an ErrCommand.
