Robotic Jigsaw Solver!

I love jigsaw puzzles, and can easily be distracted by them.

And of course I love computer programming.

So what could be more wonderful than reading this 50 page book about how a team of a dozen or so engineers spent more than a year building an absolutely gorgeous robotic jigsaw puzzle solver? Jigsaw Puzzle Robot, Or: How We Solved a Puzzle in 15 Months

Oh, and there's a fun movie, too!
