I want to use the Rotrics arm to make an image/drawing modifier. My prompt is the robot answering “this is what you should have done.” Some of the responses will be humorous (doodling on faces, crossing out sections, etc.) and others will be more constructive (parallel offsetting existing lines, adding doodles inspired by parts of the drawing, etc.). I will mount a camera above the robot, and the arm will move to modify multiple drawings at a time (lined up in front of the sliding rail). I will add some placement markers to the arm and/or drawings to help the robot easily find and register them. I will use a plethora of existing algorithms for identifying contours, faces, bodies, doodles, etc. as well as some of my own.
