    Discover 3d printing tools and improve integration in Linux desktop and flatpak by fcrozat

    Description

    Owner of a first 3d printing for some weeks (Bambulab P2S), I want to learn a bit more about the various tools to use it and, if needed, make sure they work fine in Linux desktop with flatpak.

    Goals

    Test the following tools: slicers: Bambu Studio, Orca Slicer addons: Bambu Connect design: Blender, Freecad, Fusion 360

    See if they can work fine on Aeon using Flatpak and try to improve integration in Linux desktop

    Build a Single Camera 3D Scanner (Photogrammetry). by lparkin

    Description

    I want to see how fast I can develop a single-camera (pi camera module v3) rig with a stepper motor controlling a turntable that rotates the model being scanned. The trick here is not to be super fancy with 100's of sensors and data inputs, quite the opposite. I want to see how accurate I can scan objects into 3D-printable models using only a camera and as many fixed and known parameters as possible.

    Speed to be augmented with agentic AI coding companion. As it stands, I have a 3D printer, pretty much all the electronics I need.

    Goals

    • Design and print working/workable camera rig
    • Design and print working/workable turntable (considering printing my own cylinder-style bearings as well)
    • Assemble rig components into MVP assembly
    • Develop application that can hook into existing tools, or leverage a library like openCV, to process 2D images into a 3D model.
    • Iterate until models are good enough to 3D print.
