Gcode/adamantine translation #200

Closed stvdwtt closed 2 months ago

stvdwtt commented 1 year ago

We need the ability to convert between adamantine scan path input and the Gcode that the AM machines use. This could either be in adamantine or separate.

James is working on something similar for his work that he's calling "gcloud". That format should be close to the Abaqus-style event series format.

This probably is better located in Slicer 2. It already has the capability to write adamantine outputs as well as many flavors of gcode. In terms of sending updated control signals, we're now planning to modify variables in existing gcode rather than write new gcode from scratch.

Our new workflow sidesteps this. We get our scan paths from Slicer 2 and when we issue updates ROS handles the interface to specific machines.
