While I'm waiting for my Jetson to show up, I'm starting with the other stuff.
I've been doing a lot of research into accurate open-loop positioning of BLDC motors. If there ever was a perfect application for this, part rotation is it. Basically zero load, and comparatively low speed requirements.
As a first step here, I intend to program a microcontroller to drive a 3 phase motor driver IC like it was a stepper. Step/dir interface, hard-coded microstepping, sinusoidal drive.
I'm missing a few small value caps right now, but that's about it.
Working on it.

i got my jetson nano on wednesday :)
Still reading up on everything, but i am excited about this board.
I am looking forward to seeing all of the projects that come from this board!

The Pi 3B+ I used for the last one actually did a decent job, mainly due to the CSI connector.
This should be completely on another level. I can't wait to try it.
I was tempted into ordering by the notification system. When they first got announced, I signed up. Got notified... ordered less than a minute later, out of stock. So now I wait, but I got other stuff to do in the meantime.
