To make art light machine, we use 2modules, those are made by card boards.
[assembled stages]
When motor moves, carboards deformed. SO I laser cut plywood to support structure and solved the problem.
[cut plywood parts to support construction]
2.Test
At first we have no idea to move our machine. After reading instructions and asked Instructer Mio finally understood how to use.
Connect all components. PC-FabNet board-Gestalt board-motor
execute setup.py
execute single_node.py(1 stage, press gestalt's button when required)
execute xy_plptter.py(2 stage, press gestalt's button when required)
After connected all components, we tested XY movement rule, by changing numerics in the program
[To recognize each nodes, press button when LED lit.]
3.Bulb mode photo shooting
To shoot light art, we made dark loom. This time we used Sony alpha6000 MILC, then dowonload "smart remote control" .
This application allow smartphone to control digital camera via WiFi.
[as we should do bulb shooting, made dark enviroment in the room.]

Appendix
What I've learned
To make machine, need to understand borad area of knowledges.
What We want to improve
We want to control LED on/off from program
Try tm make GUI interface, which can support vector path and realtime drawing from mouse or touch pen.
