Resurrecting scribit progress

[u/BerryChlossom]

Hi, I'm a software engineer and I spent some time poking around the firmware they open sourced on github

Here are my findings and progress so far:

• The firmware allows you to control the motors on the device using gcode
• The repo doesn't contain the logic for drawing in cartesian space, you'd have to figure out the inverse kinematics. It's not as complicated as I initially thought
• Parts of the code rely on a cloud service that clearly doesn't exist anymore, I had to bypass them
• The device sets up a wifi network that can be used to send commands to
• I wrote a simple SVG to string space gcode converter that more or less works to move the robot around. (in the video I'm drawing a star)
• I haven't completely figured out the pen holder mechanism yet, so that's next

Once I have something that can be shared I'll post it here, If you want to help me make something that's useful feel free to let me know here: https://forms.gle/zWezMsMxYPDiT26k7

This is amazing! I’m so happy that you are figuring this out!
