I am looking to pivot my career towards robotics. It seems these days all robotics related companies are using Python. Currently naminukas software is written in C with some parts in C++ in order to use C++ libraries like PCL. This week I set myself a challenge to make a standalone Python program to make naminukas to do something useful or entertaining. Here is a result:

To make this video I also wrote scripts to capture Python program execution trace with timestamps and convert it to an accurate video of which line is executed when. Obviously for most programs real-time video would be too fast to see anything but since the robot sleeps a lot between actions it is actually possible to see which lines are being executed.
