liblinuxpwm

A simple library for setting PWM pins on linux devices.

The library is based on C++11. For nicer development, a virtual PWM pin class was added. You can use this library to

• control RC servos or speed controllers
• set the brightness and colour of connected LEDs
• Play music by setting the frequency (and duty cycle to 50 % every time). Works pretty good.

Currently this library only supports PWM pins with a PWM driver connected to it.

I mainly use it for controlling a tracked vehicle with a RaspberryPi.

If you want to add something, here are some tasks:

• Add support for Linux LED devices. That should be very easy to do.
• Add support for Linux GPIO pins. Should be based on threads or boost::asio.
