I had no idea you could connect a Game Boy to a sewing machine. The Mario embroidery patterns actually look kind of cute now that they are working. It is nice to see people preserving weird pieces of history like this.
In the video at the end you can see it’s the former. They’re drawing a digital representation of the commands the emulator is sending to the “sewing machine”.

I wasn't sure whether this was emulating the sewing machine, or driving an actual sewing machine from the emulator -- it's the latter.
Followup request - digital emulated sewing machine! Should be a breeze based on the blog!

If you can emulate the sewing machine... can you run it fast enough to run a GB emulator inside of it? : )
