MAXURINO MACHINE

Last year, as part of my first experiences with Max/Msp and the Arduino, I made drill-based printer. Max/Msp was used to process the image, in this case a 10x10 pixel black and white drawing, then directly control the printer using maxduino interface. The printer was built using a stepper motor and belt assembly rescued from a discarded printer, 2 servos, 2 optical rotary sensors, and a limit switch. A rotary tool is strapped in to the servo elevator to lift the drill bit up and down, the printer assembly moves the head back and forth, and another servo drives the entire device across the palette. An earlier design was going to use plastic treads, but they were a little too cumbersome.
