Loving author of Acuitas the symbolic AI and other robots-in-progress. SFF fiction writer, video game appreciator. Day job: FPGA/radio engineer at Blue Origin. Any nonsense I say is entirely my own and does not reflect the opinions of my employer.

Trying out my new I2C-equipped solenoid drivers and ADCs I got for the hydraulic robot. I am ready to control a bajillion valves ... #robotics #hydraulics
