## What it is
A port of the SimpleFOC field-oriented-control firmware to STM32 HAL with FreeRTOS support, plus a validated evaluation board design (STM32F1). It enables efficient brushless motor control using hardware peripherals like encoder interfaces, DMA, and CAN instead of Arduino abstraction layers.

## Use cases
- control brushless motors with field-oriented control on STM32
- port SimpleFOC to STM32 HAL firmware
- evaluate FOC motor driver hardware before designing a custom board
- learn embedded motor control with FreeRTOS
- extend FOC to multi-channel or high-power motor setups

## When to choose
- you want FOC on STM32 without Arduino overhead
- you need hardware encoder, DMA, or CAN support in your motor control
- you want a reference schematic and firmware for a FOC evaluation board

## When to avoid
- you need a plug-and-play Arduino shield experience
- you target non-STM32 microcontrollers without porting effort
- you need official support or a maintained release cycle

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: embedded, robotics, simulation
- domain: embedded-systems, robotics, hardware
- platform: embedded, cpp, c
- tags: foc, motor-control, stm32, freertos, simplefoc, brushless-motor, hal, evaluation-board
