A great robot made of wood and designed with inspiration from Leonardo da Vinci's first computer. This robot will be supported by a digital program, so you can program the robot and draw your own pictures as much as you want.
We are now proud to introduce da Vinci's Drawmaton, a working model of the Renaissance Master's early read-only computer, a wooden programmable robot that draws. The machine is made only of wood and a few pieces of metal which come in a kit form for you to assemble and activate.
The machine is operated by hand, just as it was in Leondardo's day, by turning a small gear knob which activates a larger gear.
The large gear rotates the read-only assembly which sends information down to the Robot's arm and hand.
Put any drawing tool into the Robot's hand, place a piece of paper into the draw area, slowly turn the small gear knob and viola! The Robot draws a single line picture!
