Programmer built an Othello-playing robot
The robot employs a vacuum system to move clear tokens while LEDs simulate flips and indicate valid moves. The device is built on a Raspberry Pi with laser-cut and 3D-printed components.
- Field
- robotics
- What they did
- Built a robot that uses a vacuum system to move clear tokens on the board and changes their color with LEDs instead of physically flipping them.
- Why it matters
- This allows the robot to play Othello using a simple signal for available moves, avoiding the complex mechanics of flipping tokens.
