DPRG Monthly Meeting – ModLinker: A Different Approach to Robot and System Design – 6/27/2026

DPRG’s monthly meeting for June was a presentation by Mark Dombrowski on ModLinker

Presentation Summary:  Meeting Summary (PDF)

ModLinker is an attempt to create a set of tools for making modular hardware systems, like robots, simple to create, reuse, scale, and share. The talk will be an introduction to the system followed by a request for beta-testers.

The beta version of the system is based around Raspberry Pi Pico microcontrollers and MicroPython. It is designed to be simple enough for beginners but also allows features for more advanced users.
