... this "bi-directional" isn't really hard - look into the serial communicatin samples. e.g. - the "MultiSerial" sample to receive from one port and send to another: /* Multple Serial test Receives from the main serial port, sends to the others. Receives from serial port 1, send...

... for bi-/tri-directional handshaking you'll need a software for synchronisation - this can be a simple script on your PC in Java or Processing or ... I've done some of this "handshaking" style applications with different hardware-bases and softwares, so no problem, if you're familiar wi...

... you can get one of the 3D-printing controllers, connect the STEP+DIR pins to your stepper drivers and adjust the "steps per mm" so, that it will fit a deg instead of a mm. Then you can "feed" it with plain G-code. For example - homing the motors ist then: "G28 X0 Y0"...

... this was made with an old IPG YLM-60 type - an 60 Watts CW-fiberlaser with some problem to shut down completely when deactivated (the single spot visible between the jobs). The previous videos were made with a 120W-type with only 3 of the 4 power-banks running, so 85 Watts maximal: https://vimeo...

Hi Jeff, I have modified several DLP-projectors to "lampless" operation, deactivated the colour-wheel, and replaced the light source with own types (high power UV-LED's or 445nm- or 405nm-laserdiodes with own drivers too) -- so, if you'll need full control, simply modify your projector too...

Hi All,

... after some marking and engraving, I've tested stripping black paint (development for cleaning metal surfaces):

The result: - on the left a black tile -- on the right the black painted aluminum sheet (Dibond):

... you get some errors by position displacement of the marks and some more on not correct set 90deg between the panels. But most errors will accumulate by the optical equipment - optics and objectives of the cam and beamer. David software has some error correction, but this will reduce only some pe...

... let's see

... the quality/accuracy depends on the printing methode and/or service provider, they use to make the panels -- and, of course, on the fabbing (injection-moulding, milling, ...) quality of the brackets.

Could be, my "DIY" is one order of magnitude better than HP's

... for me the price for a DIY panel is negligible - maybe 5€ for the panels and 1€ more for the adhesive (or nothing for smaller than 200x200mm) ... but only, because of my tools and resources.

Could be a totally different equation for others ...
