Reference design
Massage Chair Control Board
MotorSensorPID
Overview
A reference design for an ARM Cortex based massage-chair control board — driving multiple motors and processing sensors. It integrates PID control for smooth motion and customizable massage programs.
Design highlights
- ARM Cortex MCU driving multiple motors simultaneously (rollers, air pumps, vibration)
- PID control loop for smooth, quiet massage position and force
- Position/pressure sensor reading for accurate massage-point targeting
- Integrated power drivers with per-motor over-current protection
- Control interface (buttons / touch) with storage for custom massage programs
