> Webcam. See? That's why I love LinuxCNC: you actually *could* replace a pair of microswitches with a webcam and a dollop of image processing software!
And it would make sense, because the webcam would eliminate mechanical constraints. It might also give better performance at a lower cost, at least in this age of $5 webcams. A bit of optical trickery on a second webcam would give you a real-time, two-axis, filament diameter measurement tool. Yup, this could work... -- Ed softsolder.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Windows: Build for Windows Store. http://p.sf.net/sfu/windows-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
