The "Cartotecnica" is a project made in collaboration with the Comieco - Consortium for recycling of paper and cardboard- and Roland DG.
Inside the cabinet there is a cutting plotter Roland piloted, through a hacking work, with a Raspberry Pi while the cardboard is made sensitive to the touch due to a capacitive sensor operated by Arduino Genuino.
Cutting cardboard recreates the work of a papermaking allowing children to understand one of the phases of the recycling cycle.
You choose the object you want and the "Cartotecnica" prepares a piece of paper cutting it. You have only to fold and assembly.
