To begin with, I'm sorry for not posting in a long time—I hope I will be able to make a lot of updates over the next few days. Regardless, this won't be a long project log.


I've decided to use the Teensy-LC I got as a prize a few weeks back as the section controller.

The main reason is because of its USB capabilities. In fact, it turns out it's relatively easy to use as a raw HID, meaning that sending 64-byte packets between any computer and the teensy is a breeze.

It also has a relatively high clock speed, so that's great.

I'll be doing some testing & coding for this over the next few days and will keep you updated.

Goals for software: (I'll most likely be using python)

I will eventually get a π set up, connected to the teensy, connected to a few modules.
