- First PCB builds: OK and working
- Motor modeling and control design (from optimal control theory): OK
- Position control validated with "Micro metal geared motors" and low-cost low-CPR encoder from Pololu (picture)

How did it go with this project? Can you release anything (models, schematics etc.)?
Great project, and very useful for building robots. Could you elaborate what encoders your are using for the motor position control?
Thank you for your feedback! The encoders used are magnetic quadrature encoders from Pololu (#3081) providing 12 counts per rotation.

This is really interesting. How's the project going? Working on my own little two wheeled robot using these motors/encoders and having to do everything from scratch is a pain. Would love to just use a board like this to do all the control stuff.
