I'm looking for a specialist who can help me set up a Raspberry Pi (or something similar) and write the code (Python) to receive a signal from a capacitative displacement sensor (see image) and rotate a small servo motor, in response to the sensor inputs. Detail: I have a digital displacement sensor with USB data output (see image). I have a Raspberry Pi 4b. I have a micro servo motor. I have a touch screen for Raspberry Pi. I have a rotary encoder with push button. I want to use Raspberry Pi to receive the signal from the displacement sensor and rotate the servo in real time The function from displacement to angle is not linear. The function has to be calibrated. The setup must be able to work in two modes: 1. Calibration 2. Operation. In Calibration Mode, the displacement sensor, the rotary encoder and servo are connected to Raspberry Pi. Displacement sensor takes a reading D but the servo will not move. The rotary encoder will be used to rotate the servo to the correct angle S. Push button will be pressed to lock in the tuple (D, S) . Several readings will be taken to lock in several (D, S) tuple values. These will determine the displacement to rotation function F: S = F(D). In Operation Mode, the servo will rotate to the angle corresponding to the starting displacement D0. Any movement recorded by the displacement sensor will rotate the servo in real time. Key Skills and Experience: -Extensive experience in working with Raspberry Pi or similar devices. -Proficient in handling and integrating capacitative displacement sensors. -Expertise in controlling and manipulating servo motors. -Knowledge in managing and adjusting prism positions is a plus. - A grasp and understanding of complex control systems would make you an ideal candidate. Looking forward to working with a detail-oriented and innovative professional who can execute this task efficiently.

Hello, I'm not a bot and I am not using the AI assistant to write this bid.. I am a Software Engineer and I want to help you. I have never worked with this Neoteck DTI Digital Dial Indicator, I did a research based on your image, also didn't find the manual, if you have it would be a good source of information about the communication protocol. Anyway, it should send the reading over serial COM port, so, with a Raspberry we can interface the port and receive the readings. With some luck the readings won't be encoded(in case we don't have a COM protocol) and they would be easily parsed. We will need two calibration variables, one for the sensor and another for the servo, the servo will be always on 0 degrees, so that's for start, after that we can set calibration for the DTI for the zero angle. Said that.. I would like to understand what's the ecuation you might want to apply based on the DTI reading, so we can know which will be the angle to be set in the servo, the Raspberry is my preffered board to do this, but this board wont carry a PWM module, so we will need an extra module to drive the servo to the right angle. Anyway, we should discuss more details about it. I can create this interfacing application using Python. Would like to get some feedback from you. Thanks Martin O. ~ If we decide to work together, your project will be guaranteed to be 100% completed, I have all the skills and tools to achieve it.
