Panopticon Vault
One Obsidian vault holding two wikis for a free-flying space manipulator —
a fully-actuated, 6-DOF base carrying a redundant arm. Free-flying, not
free-floating: the base is actively controlled, not left to drift under the
arm’s reaction forces. That one distinction reshapes the dynamics and the control
problem across everything here, so every source is read for which regime it assumes.
The two wikis
| Folder | Wiki | Links | Layout |
|---|---|---|---|
research/ | Literature — sources, topics, named results (the equations layer) | relative-markdown | typed folders: sources/, topics/, results/ |
code/ | Implementation — the Pinocchio guidance & control code | [[wikilinks]] | flat pages/ + cross-file topics/ |
Both wikis are live. The deep cross-wiki bridge — linking code pages to the results they implement — is a later pass.
How it is built
Each wiki is grafted in as a git subtree, kept whole in its own folder. Vault
edits push back to each wiki’s own repository, so this is a real working copy — not a
dead snapshot. Day to day: edit on iPad → commit/push the vault; periodically the
subtrees are pushed back to the research-wiki / code-wiki repos from desktop.
