Arduino Drawing Machin

A simple artist copying machine using two potentiometers, two servos and an Arduino Uno. It produces a squiggly line drawing but is a nice collaboration between man and machine.

What a nice idea! I think that it would be a great device to put in primary schools to teach children how to draw or at least to make them practice their dexterity in some kind of way.

On a side note: you’re on fire! Where do you find the inspiration to build so many projects? I have trouble finishing my own stuff :sweat:

Thanks for the encouragement Magmator! That is a good idea - if someone could make a nice 3d printed machine that would be cool.
Frankly I am out of ideas now and am revisiting some old projects. Probably won’t work on anything new for a while.
I want to figure out the effects of moving the gimbal axis around on my self balancing gyroscope and I need to improve this drawing machine so that should keep me busy for a while.
