This. Wow! I won’t be anywhere near ECC18 but I look forward to seeing coverage of this machine from the conference floor (hopefully the talk will be streamed or archived for viewing as well).
I will present that project at the Embedded Computing Conference 2018 (June 5th), both in a conference talk and have the machine in the exhibition area.
The machine is based on OpenPnP framework, and is not finished yet, and I have published status updates on Twitter. It uses mostly standard components, special parts have been 3D printed or produced with a laser cutter.

Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat – we’ll post the link there.
