This is quite a fun project to do with the OpenMV 😃 For this project I implemented OpenMV support for the Ada programming language, you can have a look at the sources here: [GitHub - Fabien-Chouteau/un\_pola: DIY instant camera with OpenMV and AdaFruit's thermal printer](https://github.com/Fabien-Chouteau/un_pola/)
