Introduction

This repo contains my work for Oxford Robotics Institute X-Y Plotter challenge HT 2023.

Platform

This project uses the open-source design Asmograf Pen Plotter.

Compatible GCode is generated form images using various methods, including

  • Raster image
  • SVG to GCode
  • Repeating patterns
  • TSP art
