I bought the commarker omni x and I’m interested in working with it with LIGHTBURN and connecting a camera to it.
Has anyone managed to do this?
Hiya! I just set up my Omni X last night, so early days.
Generally you can set up a camera on a galvo laser, however often I personally find it’s not worth the hassle. Your camera will only function at the plane that it’s been calibrated in - so if you calibrate it to the focus level of your galvo (which is even more precise on a UV) then you must have the focus set perfectly to the top surface of your part for the camera to be useful.
There’s been some discussion on the matter here: Camera Mount for Galvo Lasers
It’s definitely possible, and I’ll probably do it myself in the future, but first I’m going to get the hang of using the UV source.
