I am looking for lasers that I can program myself. I can't find much information on lasers which can be programmed, and even less on how to write software for it. I see theres a few software solutions already but I want to programmatically control the lights.
Anyone can shed some light on this?
I wanted the same thing (to programmatically control a laser) so I took an existing library (oriented around drawing of frames) and hooked into it in a way that I could send an limitless stream of points to it.
Generally, the search term you want to search for is "ILDA". ILDA compatible lasers have a standard connector on the back to set the X/Y position of the laser as well as the intensity of the color components.
