The Hexapod Controller is a socket based interface to operate the Dmitri hexapod designed by Matt Bunting.

The app is able to send control information to the hexapod computer, including the accelerometer readings, joystick positions, and slider positions. The hexapod computer can also send back the current kinematic state of the hexapod so that the app can display an OpenGL based simulation of the hexapods kinematic state.

It is unlikely that anyone will be able to make use out of the control functionality of this app, unless they own the Dmitri or Nico hexapod .

When no hexapod is present, a full inverse kinematic simulation of the hexapod is integrated to operate the simulated hexapod.

Currently this works with MBrobotics API version 0.1.0 at github.com/blegas78/MBrobotics
