…a blog with awesome projects. A collection of overcomplicated devices nobody needs. A sanctum for all the things that did not get living room clearance, but oughta be seen by fellow nerds.
Video ist bestimmt interessant, aber ich kann's nicht anschauen. Bei dem Akzent sterbe ich innerlich ein bisschen, weil es mich zu sehr an meinen eigenen Akzent erinnert. ^^
Bro, I loved this video. hope you have something new coming up on these lines on macro keyboards after 3 years. BTW, went bonkers seeing the animation in between. was that done in Blender? Looking for a detailed or an upgraded version of this video please. also. Anyway, to collaborate with you on a product design like this for a POC/MVP?
i want to do this.. but i have a6400 and Klipper not octroprint nor octolapse.. and if i was able to connect it like via usb that would be great but idk how to do that also.. because klipper uses crownnest, any solutions?
No idea about Klipper, but the a6400 has plenty of triggering options that can be used for automation: Wifi, USB, IR and Bluetooth (which I just released a few weeks ago). If there are Klipper tutorials for this, using gphoto via USB will probably be the easiest and most reliable one.
Their compatibility list is incomplete. It has been added a while ago: github.com/gphoto/libgphoto2/issues/407 Also, I am using the a6400 as my main camera too and tried it. The only thing I am uncertain about right now is if it can download photos as I used gphoto for video triggering and video transfer via USB does not work in control mode. But I would be surprised if photos could not be transferred and even if they can't you can just convert the photos from the SD to a time lapse later. Just make sure that your USB setting is correct as the a6400 offers mass storage, PC control and PTP. I think PC control should work best and PTP might work if some custom extensions have been implemented by gphoto (not sure I remember this correctly), but mass storage obviously will not allow triggering.
Hey Sebastian, i just read your blogg about this project and i wonder if you can tell me the noices the CNC does while working in your system? Is there a big difference with doors cloesd/open? Did you maybe meassure the dB?
Sorry, I don't have numbers, but the doors make a difference. When they are closed, the shop vacuum is definitely the loudest part of the setup. If I open the doors, it depends on the current job.
This is done with a little motorized camera dolly. Mine is an Andoer L4 Pro, but I think that the same device is sold under different budget brand names, too.
Bit late but in theory would it have been possible to boot strap it to an emulator on the pc instead of trying to do it on the rpi? Like sending the raw data over the usb and then in software on the pc pipe the data into the drawing/image processing part of some already existing emulator? Would give more resources to the pi and the streaming pc does the image reconstruction based on the data?
