DROPCONTROLLER SETS THE BAR FOR DOCUMENTATION
Posted on: 15 Jun 2026
dropController has the kind of documentation we wish would spontaneously generate itself whenever we build something. [Martyn Currey] built a robust rig for water droplet photography, and we don’t want to dismiss the hardware, but the most impressive part might be the website.
