Hi, Is there any stepper settings in .hex file? My gearbox different from original dobot so i need change settings. I saw in only DobotSDK but do you have another? I want to ask a question more. Can we do anything applications more from examples with open-dobot? I can't use dobottools, dobottools don't see my arduino. Thanks for everything!  |

The only stepper-related settings are in SDK.
Specifically you'll need to make sure the following match your motors:
stepperMotorStepsPerRevolution
baseMicrosteppingMultiplier
rearArmMicrosteppingMultiplier
frontArmMicrosteppingMultiplier
stepperPlanetaryGearBoxMultiplier
I'm guessing your second question is about extending examples. Of course you can extend them. Just read the description of the functions that are called in those examples, copy-paste commands in examples and update coordinates to whatever you need.
It is also not hard to control dobot online using SDK and a simple OpenCV console app (or GUI app, if you prefer) written in Python. Something like making dobot to follow an object with a camera shouldn't be too hard to do.
But that is not the main objective of open-dobot. As it is open you are free to modify it to add more sensors, motors, actuators, etc. It also runs on RaspberryPi, so you can put dobot on a small mobile platform controlled only with RPi, as long as you provide 12V 5A to drive dobot itself of course.
