Project Overview
Software
The software FLMScan for prototype 2 is based on the FLMScan software of prototype 1.
The following improvements are planned for prototype 2 of FLMScan software:
- Calibration functionality
- Installer
- Improved user interface
- Rotating plate control via serial interface
- Export of bitmaps
- Preview functionality
- Support of German and English language
Electronics
Three electronics subprojects are planned for prototype 2:
- Electronics for calibration ("calibration board")
- Electronics for housing (switch-key, power supply light/laser)
- Electronics for rotating plate control (PCB)
Mechanics
Several mechanics subprojects are planned for prototype 2:
- Rotating plate mechanics
- Lasercut for simple rotating plate platform (rotating plate directly mounted on stepper motor axis)
- Lasercut for rotating plate with gear
- 3D print for rotating plate with gear
- Lasercut for calibration board
- Lasercut for webcam- and laser mounts
- Mechanics for laserscanner housing
Documentation
Documentation of software, electronics and mechanics is planned for prototype 2.
Documentation subprojects are:
- Documentation of whole 3D scanner project in FabLab Munich Wiki
- Documentation of FLMScan software
- Documentation of elektronics (including part list and circuits)
- Documentation of mechanics (including vector graphics for lasercuts, 3D models for 3D prints, as well as mounting instructions)
