Some nights you spend hours in cad getting everything right. And some nights you sanity-check your telescoping actuator design with a @dunkindonuts box, pencils, @Scotch tape and twine. #RobotTwitter

Added this little 5MP USB camera to the robot (and URDF, and I'll be using it for streaming video. Now building @ooeygui's webrtc_ros repo... Meanwhile, has anyone worked with cameras like this before? How do I control the LED? #RobotTwitter #ROS

Hey #RobotTwitter, I'm having some trouble with adding more than 5 parameters to the #microROS parameter server on my Teensy 4.1. Any suggestions on how I can fix this? https://t.co/MiPzt36ifS

@audrow can you give this one a boost? You've really become a hub of all things #RobotTwitter, and this is a question I'm almost embarrassed I don't have the answer to.

#RobotTwitter question: For folks that use a mini-PC or laptop as their robot's core compute rather than PI or microcontroller--how does one handle lack of GPIO, pwm, i2c etc to communicate with sensors, motors, etc?
