We were pleased to see the Kickstarter for Ringo, the Photopopper-ish but much smarter version of our own ~17 year old design robot kit. The video showcases some pretty cool behaviors, and is easily one of those projects where we think "Jee, why didn't we do that?"

Not only that, it's nice to see another company with similar workflow (Altium / Solidworks / Quad pick and place). Feels very "in sync" with us.

We're onboard with the Kickstarter (only 48 hours left!). Give it a look!
