Posted by Marco Minerva I’m very interested in combining .NET Gadgeteer devices with other techonologies. In this post I’ll show how to use the Microsft Speech Platform to recognize speech and send commands to control a servo. Let’s start with the Gadgeteer device. We’ll use the HiTec HS-311 servo, the same that has been described […]

The Gadgeteer.Interfaces.PWMOutput interface can support the use of a servo to move mechanical parts of a device as needed by applications. This example uses the Gadgeteer.Interfaces.PWMOutput interface and a servomechanism to turn a camera through an arc of about 140 degrees.  The Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) input for this servo is obtained from a WCF REST Web service running on a remote IIS Server.  The […]
