- sjpb 2y agoI loved that idea & tried prototyping one using two "laser" mice instead of the tape/vision approach but the accuracy wasn't anywhere near good enough
- TKnab 2y agoThere is this https://www.compassrouter.com https://www.compassrouter.com Repo here: https://github.com/camchaney/handheld-cnc https://github.com/camchaney/handheld-cnc Not at all associated with the project, just came across it the other day. Look like it uses a single optical mouse sensor and corrects in a single dimension at a time.
- camchaney 2y agoOh hey, that's my device! Thanks for sharing. It actually uses 4 optical mouse sensors so that there is redundancy to minimize error. Very much a work in progress at the moment, but there are lots of stuff I'm hoping to improve in the coming weeks to make it more suitable for useful woodworking projects.
