This site is about an Open Source laser engraver/cutter controler system, both hardware and software. Further info can be found on the Rationale and background page. The site was created in 2010 by Jaap Vermaas and Peter Brier, and is now being taken further with the help of many Contributors.
A laser cutter consists of several components, further described on the Overview page - this site focuses on units such as the HPC LS3020, in combination with the LAOS electronics. For a full list, see the Supported lasers so far. The current electronics are Mainboard v0.3 and i2cpanel vx.x - check the Older electronics boards list for previous versions.
