I think that the Blu-ray hack was a nice way to 'prototype' but that it would be more efficient to focus on 3d printer parts to have a mvp.
Anyway let's hope that the Kickstarter will be a success!
I agree, the blu-ray players are what got me into it but it doesn't really make much sense for mass production. I've said that if the campaign picks I'll modify a small 3D printer instead (probably by EasyThreed, they have good prices and they've been friendly to talk to). But I still really want to get at least a few of the blu-ray classic model out there, especially if someone needs a system that's really small! I originally made it for use inside of an incubator, actually.
Thank you, I hope the Kickstarter will be a success too! I've made a bunch of changes in just the past few days, and I'm hoping Kickstarter might notice it and slap that "Joan's book club" sticker on it.
So when I saw this heading I was instantly intrigued and went in with the idea that there was a very high likelihood I was going to back this.
However I left without backing it as I am completely unsure of what this is. It looks like it is 3 completely separate products. One maybe uses my own camera, but only if I can connect it to a Windows computer as a webcam? The others have their own camera? One is 2d or maybe 3d. One is 4d. 5d?
What software do I need? Zerene Stacker? Did you make a new software?
I am so lost to what exactly I would be getting and what would be the best option for my use-case; which is not paper, coins or bugs. What kind of image is the result? You show some 3D images but it looks like only a top down shot on 2 of the 3 products.
It’s just all very confusing and wish I was excited after watching both videos and reading everything as I was going into it.
I did make a $1 pledge that gets you the software by itself, but the truth is it's all available for free anyway! Cheers!
But this. looks awesome, best of lucks!
