transcript of lady with video that uses robot arm to do paint by numbers painting

 She uses python to program the robot and it keeps going back to the colors and diping in the apropriate colors and washing the brush in between colors.

hi my name is Joanne hasty and I'm an

artist based in Vancouver BC Canada and

for the past little while I have been

teaching myself Python code in order to

program a robotic arm to paint now any

time I tell people about this project

the first thing they ask is do you have

any movies of it working now I haven't

until this video so I thought for my

very first video I would do one of my

favorite projects from when I was a

little girl five or six was

paint-by-numbers so let's see if I can

get this robotic arm to do a

paint-by-numbers so I picked up one of

these dollar-fifty paint-by-numbers this

one is an aquatic scene it comes with

seven colors and a paintbrush but I

noticed immediately that the expectation

is that you're going to mix the colors

which they haven't given you enough

paint so I'm actually going to be using

my own paint for this but however so you

can see the picture a little bit better

here it is we've got a deep-sea diver he

is standing on the leg of a squid and

then there's a happy little shark in the

corner and then a submarine so we'll see

if we can paint this now some of the

steps I took to start this project was I

photographed this and I brought it into

Photoshop which you can see behind me so

it's the same photo right here I colored

it in and that's how I used my

algorithms to figure out where to put

what colors where and then turn that

into code that the robot can then read

so without further ado let's watch see

if the robot can can paint this

all right so what do you think this was

the outcome as you can see I really like

that green squid back there it's filled

in some yellow and red on to the scuba

diver has a very happy yellow shark

there and a bright red submarine so it

blocked out the colors pretty well

clean the brush between the strokes I

look forward to your comments below and

if you liked this project you can see

all of the paintings that I've done with

this robotic arm on at painting

variables on my Instagram feed so the

link is also below and you can see all

of my artwork at Joanne st.com thanks

for watching
