fr8

factory

I spent three months with @Theo-Michel at FR8 in Helsinki building a fully self-governed factory. We let 30 people try it for a month - it made 70 products.

control

We built a control hierarchy for each robot and machine on the floor. Clippy talked to customers and ran jobs; each machine agent managed its own robot state machine. Everything communicated over MQTT.

hardware

We also built several of the robots from scratch - PCB design, quick prototyping, firmware, homing sequences.

Don't forget to write something about how I used the Makiina arms!!
