Remote User Interfaces for Machines
-
Hi,
We are working on remote user interfaces for machines like 3D printers, CNC mills, robots and others. The user interfaces are designed to work in combination with "Machinekit":http://machinekit.org but the design behind it is very generic and could possibly be used for other projects as well. Basically ZeroMQ and Protobuf are used for network communication.
We also added few new QtQuick compinents:
