Sandify
Sandify is working on a solution to turn your cold, empty hearted, emotionless sand tables into cold, empty hearted emotionless sand table robots with enchanting patterns.
The output of sandify is code you can run on your sand table. The requirements of this code are:
- Continuous, since the ball can't lift to travel to another location
- Can't exceed machine limits, since the firmware isn't smart enough about how the limits are handled.
- Not a requirement, but the patterns would be better if they mostly cover the area.
Different designs are possible, and input is welcome from the community.
Using the tool
It's currently hosted at:
- Visit the webpage
- Adjust the machine limits to match your build
- Play with the inputs until you have a pleasing pattern.
- Save the code with the export button.
