A Hilbert curve is a space filling curve fractal. Each order of the fractal becomes increasingly dense. I programmed the GCodeSender to generate this fractal as a test pattern so that I could gauge the repeatable accuracy now and in the future.
I’ve also been hard at work teaching all the robots to write the ASCII character set. At the next Maker Faire I think I hope to have a “robot writes your tweets” system.
Did you know can see more pictures of R&D on Instagram and Twitter almost every day? It’s true. Follow us and share with your friends to stay informed.
ATX is the automation technology expo. If you want to take the pulse of business robotics, this is a major artery.

The next ATX South isn’t for two years, but it’s already in my calendar. Maybe by then they’ll have me as a guest blogger? I would love to attend your next robotics conference and tell the world about it. Just putting that out there.
I thought that writing a program in Java would make life easier for everyone. Turns out there are some gotchas. Java is installed a little bit different on each version of Windows, which makes life difficult for everyone.
I really want all the programs I’ve released in the last few years to be as easy to run as Arduino or Minecraft, but I don’t have the knowledge to make it happen. Can you show me how? I’ll take anything that works!
