Always Plotting Something…

#plotparty day 2 - collaboration (between myself and my robots, in a way)

A web app running on my phone sends SVG fragments to a program on my laptop which sends gcode to OctoPrint on a Raspberry Pi and that passes it on to the Arduino running Marlin and controlling the motors. Now I need a break!

I think I'll go back to leaving the decision-making to the computers though. This was fun to build but the latency of a few seconds means I'm not truly reacting to what's been drawn already yet.
