I can also do waypoints that are linearally interpolated. (realtime is just a fast stream of the same interpolation)

Off brand raspberry pi pico on a development board for the MeArm robot arm.

World's slowest prototype takes another microstep forward towards compatibility with Raspberry Pi Pico. Also plugged in the sliders board for testing and it's all going surprisingly ok...

Still killing it. Huge respect as ever.

Doom scrolling about Greenland. That's where it's at these days.

Rolling back a decade for #ThrowbackThursday. Photos taken for the Nottingham Creative Class 2015, taken on Jubilee Campus Nottingham.

Putting screws into bags because AI can't do that yet.

How's your new year going folks?

Not sure we ever hit that particular stretch goal!

Strangely nostalgic for Airmail stickers. I know you can still get them, but they're utterly redundant these days.

Memories of thin blue paper to write to my relatives in Australia, my gosh, I'm old!

I'll get back to them Martin! Nearly finished (who am I kidding?!) the big house project

Orders heading to Bristol, Barcelona, and Menlo Park, CA today. A quiet day, but I'll take it!

Global shake up is going to butcher so many businesses. End of days for some, companies like Adafruit add huge amounts of value in the USA, but their supply chain is global and they'll be hammered by tariffs.

Thank you! Needed that this morning 🤖❤️

Messy desk scene. Random robot parts, maybe a cake and definitely coffee.

Scenes from the desk in 2015. Robot parts and coffee. 10 years on and some things just don't need changing!

Repairing cars and building time machines?

The System Admin page for Norbot, the robot from Aardman's Vengeance Most Fowl.

Now that is a feature packed robot! Inspiration from Aardman and master roboteer and inventor Wallace.

Is @mbanzi.bsky.social now repairing cars on YouTube?

Is it Henry?

Yup, loads, don't think they made the bin yet. Let me have a look and get back to you.

MOrning! It's cowd out there me ducks!
Stay home, drink coffee, build robots instead.

Oh I like that, having a Blueskie

Photo of a messy desk, including take measure, thumbstick controller cover, box of M2.5 screws and dymo printer

Do you? Actually, off all people, you are most likely to.

Boom and there we have it. 600 or so folks to follow. Already feeling like home!

Ah thanks Phil!
