My Most Exotic SFML Application

[lolz123]

Hello all,

I recently got into some robotics with Arcbotics's Hexy, a Kickstarted hexapod robot.
It came with a simple movement controller that cannot combine movements and is very stiff looking.
So I decided to make my own inverse kinematics controller for Hexy. After that, I wanted a way to control it manually.

I had a Xbox controller sitting around, so I decided to make it communicate over serial and send commands dictated by the Xbox controller. It should work with Bluetooth too, haven't tested it yet though.

So where does SFML come in here? Well, I needed some library to handle joystick input, and I love SFML, so I decided to use that. I know, not the greatest and fullest application of SFML, but I felt it was still worth sharing here (especially since it is such a weird application of SFML  )

Here's the download: https://sourceforge.net/projects/hexyik/?source=navbar

And here's a video of it in action:

No I think that's pretty cool and awesome! Great job!
