If you are interested in building electronic "things", then this video might be of interest to you. What if you had to manufacture 50 PCB's using smt/smd devices by a certain date... You could build them by hand, outsource to China but the numbers are pretty low so not attractive to them and it's slow for you. What if you could make them yourself?? That's what Jon Oxer asked himself before deciding to build a "Pick and Place Machine" using open source software and some hardware.
This video was recorded at linux.conf.au 2016 (LCA2016) in Geelong Australia. Many thanks to the organises for allowing me to participate. This video is put up as is "for the record". A huge thank you to Jon Oxer for his support of this channel, me personally and for sharing of his invaluable knowledge.
