HMC-000 is a high-performance sensored BLDC controller specifically made for…

Brief

The HMC-000 is a sensored BLDC motor controller designed for robotic actuators, with both PCB and Rust-based FOC firmware developed from scratch to eliminate problems seen in other controllers. Announced by @wavefnx (2026-06-08) the board and software will power the author’s upcoming actuators; a video and the slogan “Become the Machine” accompanied the reveal.

Why it matters

HMC-000 is a high-performance sensored BLDC controller specifically made for robotic actuators, announced by @wavefnx on 2026-06-08.

Key details

  • The hardware (PCB) and firmware (Rust-based FOC and services) were developed from the ground up to avoid issues found in other controllers and will be used on the author’s upcoming actuators.
  • Author posted an accompanying video and framed the project as full-stack hardware/software craftsmanship with the tagline “Become the Machine.”
Source evidence

Say hello to the HMC-000, the high performance sensored BLDC controller, made for robotic actuators.

The PCB is built from the ground up, as well as the Rust firmware/FOC to avoid any issues other controller might have.

It will be used on the upcoming actuators.

There’s something magical about building things from scratch. Not in the way it’s used today, where you use 100 deps and pretend you “build a browser”

I mean, fully building the PCB, CAD for mechanical parts, Rust for firmware and services from the ground up

Become the Machine
