Final Year Studio - Development - Multiple Stepper Output



After getting one stepper motor to work the next step wire up multiple stepper motors. This involved using four control relay switches, plus four motor relay switches and one ground relay switch for each motor. The motors were alternatively driven and were animated by simply turning their ground connection 'on' and 'off.' This resulted in a very complicated circuit, that in theory when adapted will allow me to directly control each motor and dictate which letter will be shown.
