Show HN: I built a hardware processor that runs Python
PyXL runs Python directly in hardware. GPIO toggle in sub-micro. See how it works.
It’s a simple hardware pin that software can read from or write to — a way to control the outside world: LEDs, buttons, sensors, motors, and more. This binary is sent via network to the Arty board, where an ARM CPU gets the application, copies it to a shared memory with the PyXL HW and starts running it. 🕹 Real-time control systems in pure Python 🧠 ML inference + sensor response loops with hard timing budgets 🤖 Robotics tasks like motor feedback and sensor fusion with cycle-level precision 🔧 Embedded industrial systems where timing and reliability matter
