How to control a stepper motor using a Raspberry Pi computer. Step and stepper motors are synonyms. These motors provide precise positioning based, on number of steps (a step is just a small angle of rotation). In this video, we are using a small motor model 28BYJ-48 with 2048 steps and ULN2003 integrated circuit transistor array. We will implement motor rotation based on modern gpiozero package and a custom Python module with a class that is based on Arduino Stepper library but adapted and converted to Python and gpiozero. You will see the complete circuit, the code, and the working real-life system demo. Wiring and programming are done in easily reproducible manner in the form of tutorial.
