Connecting a haptic motor to a MiniBee

In this tutorial we will show how to connect a haptic vibration motor to a MiniBee.

There are different kind of vibration motors available: tiny button type motors or small DC motors with an offset mass that vibrates when it rotates.

In addition to these motors, you will need a few additional electronic components to connect the motor to a MiniBee.

In this tutorial we will show

  • the electronics needed and how to connect them
  • how to create a configuration file to control the motor
  • how to control the motor via OSC
