Reusing an ancient industrial Robot for Art
Recently finished reviving an ancient SCARA robot, adding a modern control software, giving it a paintbrush and with the help of comrades python-ing it into painting with a paintbrush.
Its a bit heavy on the robot mechanical and electrical side, but there's a github repo of image processing to synthesize the brush paths and I thought you folks might be interested.
