See also the LumenPnP by Opulo [1]. It’s a fully open source (hardware and firmware) pick and place machine with optical tracking, basically a perfect match for the OpenPnP control software.
I'm stocking mostly 0402. We're shlepping it to various small assemblers, but considering a small PnP for in-house prototypes and as a reserve resource for when the assemblers are overcommitted or have other problems

TIL what an "SMT Pick and Place" [0][1] machine is.
Summary: $1000 and with open source hardware and tools, I can make custom computing hardware for your projects.
Seems pretty cool.

It uses OpenPnP, or at least it did, it's been a while since I saw any of the videos ('Stephen Hawes [née the Robot]' on YouTube).
This is very cool, thanks!
According to the site, it does in indeed run openPnP
