OpenFFBoard ★ 1017 172 APPLICATION

OpenFFBoard is an open-source force feedback interface board designed for simulation devices like steering wheels and joysticks. The firmware provides force feedback effects via USB HID to gaming/simulation software while processing inputs from encoders, analog sources, buttons, and CAN bus. It features a modular architecture based on FreeRTOS with TinyUSB USB stack, supporting multiple motor drivers (PWM, TMC4671, ODrive, VESC, RMD) and a command interface for runtime configuration. Settings persist to flash/EEPROM via an abstraction layer with automatic registration. The project targets STM32 microcontrollers (F407VG, F407VG_DISCO, F411RE) and includes extensive hardware abstraction layers, plugin architecture for extensibility, and clean C++ wrappers for FreeRTOS primitives.
