So far, all of my work with the AxiDraw has been with JavaScript and an experimental tool I’ve been building, aptly named penplot. The tool primarily acts as a development environment, making it easier to organize and … 展开

For algorithmic work with AxiDraw and its SVG plugin, I tend to distill all my visuals into a series of polylines composed of nested arrays. This creates two horizontal lines in the top left of our print, each 1 cm wide. Here, point… 展开

A simple starting task would be to explore Delaunay triangulation. For this, we will use delaunay-triangulate, a robust triangulation library by Mikola Lysenko that works in 2D and 3D. We will also use the new-arraymodule, a s… 展开

In the next instalment of this series, we’ll attempt to reproduce a fracturing algorithm for a more interesting composition. Continue reading: Pen Plotter Art & Algorithms, Part 2 展开
