Open source Rangefinder schematics and code

Dear Patreon members, as promised i have created the schematics and the code for the rangefinder movement.

Its also an introduction to an open source coding portion of my (soon to be ) web page, where i'll try not to provide only 3d printable models, but would love to include a wider audience such as tech savvy peple and coders to share open source code/schematics to acompany our prop, cosplay and mini's builds :)

Yes static props are cool, moveable props are cool, but lets try to step it up a bit :D

The reason why i have made it open source is so every mysterymakers member arround the world can play with it, create their own custom one , and in the end will be able to share it on the web page and get full credit for their creation :) In time i will also be making some open source models to once again have you play with it and create custom stuff of your own.

I do ask for a bit more patience, im trying to get it all done asap, along with the new file sharing system, and new projects, so its taking a bit :)


To begin this coding adventure i have create a rangefinder movement code to share with you.

I used arduino uno, but it is recomended to use arudino nano for its size, but the setup is pretty much identical :)

And ofcourse you need the arduino IDE to upload the code to your arudino motherboard

The way it works ( there's a video in the folder as well)  :

- theres a 5 second delay when you press the button, and the rangefinder will move up, and vice versa

- in the code you can change the delay time from 5 seconds to whatever you wish it to be , or remove the delay

- i used a power bank as my "power source"

This is the first one so im looking forward to your feedback, and i hope to improve all of it by the time the web page is ready

And im jumping back in to making new 3d model that i plan to release by the end of the month :D

For now i'll share it in the foldre here, but once my web page is done, it will all be in one place
