Laser Open Source (LAOS) floss your laser!

LaOS for 3D printers?

I removed the electronics from my Makerbot Cupcake and replaced them with a LaOS board. Suddenly I have a Makerbot with display, endstops, smooth movements etc. Hardware-wise, our LaOS board is a drop-in replacement. But the software will still require some tinkering...

About LaOS

The LaOS project strives to produce an open source environment for laser cutting.

We do not build laser cutters, but we convert existing machines by replacing the driver board with our own.

The project consists of:

  • Platform independent PC software to send files to your laser cutter
  • Embedded computer board to replace the driver board of your laser
  • Firmware for our embedded boards

The LAOS project was initiated by Peter Brier (KekkeTek), Jaap Vermaas (Fab Lab Truck), Jelle Boomsma and Siert Wijnia (Protospace).
