Developed on Python to leverage state-of-the-art extensibility and easily integrated plugins Able to use low cost robots with the accuracy and dexterity of much more expensive robots, achieved in part by: a) Ability to drive movement by inexpensive DC gear head motors, including the inherent ability to specify movement by applied force rather than strict space/time control that steppers impose. b) Arms and linkages don't have to have super tight tolerances, because accuracy is achieved by tightly integrated visual feedback that's easy to program and low complexity processing. ...

Allows one to program fablab (factory and/or laboratory) in the same way as we program computer. Imagine commands like: "dim screw12 as new screw" or "mold(form_piston_081212, brass)" or ''gear(3)=lasercut(steel2,"biggear.gc")". This approach will let us program highly automated and self-deploying or even self-replicating factories. I am more engineer than programmer and just beginner in python. So it looks like community help will be needed :)
