During this workshop we will show you what we've made: software, hardware and the running laser cutter. Then we invite you to hack it, improve it, make it do amazing cool things!

LAOS - Laser Open Source is a project to write a laser cutter driver that can work on any platform. All software and hardware designed in the project is Open Source and freely distributable.

The project exists of these subdivisions:

  • a CUPS compatible laser cutter driver
  • Conversion routine to transfer from postscript to our own GCODE-like code
  • embedded code to drive the machine
  • mainboard (hardware) to replace existing mainboard in laser cutter

Allthough we do not actively design laser cutters (the machine) ourselves, we encourage people to use our software and mainboard in open hardware laser cutter designs.

Our project is work in progress... you can see our progress every day!
