If there were two technological developments representative of the creative future of design and engineering, they'd be the 3D printer and the Raspberry Pi. The former allows you to create just about ...

Many of the fancier 3D printers now run their own internal web server that you can log into from any browser on your LAN. This usually lets you control the printer, use its internal camera, if any, ...

Octoprint is the go-to 3D printer controller for many enthusiasts for a good reason. This open-source web interface communicated with OctoPi software to give 3D printers smart features without needing ...

There are many reasons why 3D printing hobbyists eventually gravitate towards Klipper firmware. Some want to print faster, whereas others seek killer features like input shaping exclusive to this open ...

Traditionally, 3D printer control boards have used simplistic 8-bit microcontrollers to command the stepper drivers and ultimately move the machine where it needs to go. Newer boards have switched ...

Raspberry Pi users wishing to design and create their very own 3D models to be transferred from digital concepts to physical 3D printed objects, may be interested in a new tutorial published by the ...

A lot of raw materials and energy are used to produce a printer. The longer the device is in use, the better in terms of sustainability. With a Raspberry Pi, you can indirectly make older printers ...
