dynamixel

Circuitpython driver library for the Dynamixel series of servo motors from Robotis.

Dynamixels are a series of smart actuators designed to form the connecting joints on a robot or other mechanical structure. They utilize an addressed UART bus system, allowing them to be daisy chained to one another with a minimum of cabling. Dynamixels also contain an integrated controller for setting torque and temperature limits, speed adjustment, continuous rotation mode, and other features.

The AX series is supported by this library. Support for the RX and MX series is likely but untested.
