Listen "121: Industrial 3D Printing & Python, Finite State Machines, and Simulating Hardware - Len Wanger"
Episode Synopsis
Len Wanger works on industrial 3D printers. And I was pleased to find out that there's a bunch of Python in those printers as well. In this episode we talk about:3D printersWhat are the different types of 3D printers?Where are 3D printed industrial parts being used?Why use one type of additive manufacturing over another?Python in 3D printing hardware.What are Finite State Machines, FSMs?Benefits of FSMs for testing, logging, and breaking a complex behavior into small testable parts.Benefits of simulation in writing and testing software to control hardware.Special Guest: Len Wanger.Links:pystate — Python package for co-routine base state machinesImpossible Objects — Composite 3D PrintingFinite-state machine, FSM
