Equal spacing along a curve for linkages

- [Instructor] I have my size file open already. In this video, we're going to be using Kangaroo, which now should install with your Grasshopper installation in Rhino 6. But if you don't have Kangaroo installed already you can see the installation process in this other video. So we're going to look at another common scenario using NURBS curves. It's often the case that you're using the NURBS geometry, a curve or a surface, as the basis for building something out of parts in real life. And ideally, you wanted those parts to be similar as much as possible. So if you use many of the same length parts, that's better than using lots of unique parts where you have to keep track of them, ID them, remember the order, fabricate them using some custom process. So let's say you're building something with linkages along a curve, segments, and you want those segments to all be the same length but you want the segmented version of this…
