November 14, 2025

This has been my favorite week in recent memory! We manufactured our glovebox vacuum chamber - it lacks some ergonomic features which will be good to have in mind for the next version, but on the whole works well. We ordered new prints, which we’ll receive early next week: a glove (had to make a few extra changes to the voro packing density algorithm to account for how much variance there is in the surface), and a few spheres (to test out what the appetite for spheres as desk fidgets is like). We also did a bunch of testing on Tapestry end to end, which took a huge push to get done, and now opens a lot of doors for us. We worked on expanding the capability of the metrics, as well as the robustness and logging, based on some stress testing we did. Also coming out of that stress testing was the decision to have a velcro band that marks the top of the scan area, rather than a drawstring - this simple change makes a lot of mesh processing steps much easier. We also did a lot of clinic research, and as soon as we’ve made these last few improvements, we are going to start going door to door (metaphorically, potentially physically).
