I got sad that the GUI app for converting images for the BrachioGraph that I was using uses PySimpleGUI, and that that library went to a closed source model, so I made a new-but-similar thing using PySides https://github.com/andypiper/brachiograph-converter-gui

@andypiper shame about PySimpleGUI: I hate it when that happens

I keep meaning to see how hard it would be to make a BrachioGraph-like thing but driven by a Pico (and preferably, MicroPython). Sadly, the BrachioGraph plot format is not very microcontroller-friendly

@scruss yeah, something Pico-ish is on my ideas list... I think there's a micro:Bit variant somewhere.

@andypiper I see that Kitronik are already on it:
https://kitronik.co.uk/blogs/resources/making-an-advanced-pico-drawing-robot-arm

Might take a bit to unpick it from their hardware (which does have a nice PIO-based servo driver, admittedly). I enjoyed being a Kitronik reseller immensely: they were pretty committed to their products

@scruss yep, I bought the kit a while ago but haven't done anything with it yet. The projects box overflows...
