Luneforge is built on top of Pymesh docker image (a fast C++ Python wrapped Geometry Processing Library) https://github.com/PyMesh/PyMesh It requires docker cause its the best way to have all the required dependancies

Conventional PLA. Since its the cheapest and surprisingly extremley stable for Ghz range RF applications I recommed you to read the research paper "Measuring the Electrical Properties of 3D Printed Plastics in the W-Band " ( https

hi! yes. As a matter of fact while developing this tool as my capstone project at the National Tecnological University here in Buenos Aires , im also planning on developing a 2.4Ghz lens to showcase the capabilities of the project. 2.4Ghz l

Luneburg lenses for RF are 100% dielectric. You print your lens with a known dielectric constant uv curable resin and it its good to go! Methods like this are the ones that Lunewave ( https://lunewave.com/ ) use for developin

Hi ChuckMcM! If you are interested , i also developed last year a PLA Luneburg lens for Band X (8Ghz to 12Ghz) using a conventional FDM printer. We obtained a 6dbm gain @10Ghz https://github.com/jboirazian/LuneburgLensG

Hi mNovak! You are 100% right on that. Im working on deploying a free version to access it online so people can check it out. Also im working on making a step by step guide so people can install it with docker and looking to other alternati

Hi frazar0, We're excited to receive some Radix resin from Rogers Corporation, which is the current standard for developing RF lenses due to its low dielectric permittivity and low loss tangent coefficient. We also have a few simulated

Thanks for the feedback! Will try to improve on that , first time on hackernews and first time developing a real open source project

Hi mikewarot, As a general rule, Luneburg lenses need to have a diameter at least equal to the wavelength of the frequency they are designed to operate with. Because of this, Luneburg lenses are more cost-effective at higher frequencies, ma
