This is payback, I want an army of these lego draftsmen in my studio.
Outstanding.

Would be kinda cool (and creepy) so come back home from work and be able to look through 10 or 20 pictures that your legos (re)created. lol

It’s easy to look at the NXT platform as see it as a childs toy but it is capable of doing some amazing things.

Which firmware was used to do it though, Lego’s (doubt it) or maybe like lejos?

The engineers where I worked set it up for a demo.
