Code for driving a cable-driven parallel robot for mapping beams on surfaces.

The robot moves and controls switchable thermal infrared sources to scan a 2D x-y plane, and is capable of absolute accuracy at the <3 mm level over a workspace ~0.40m x 0.40m.

Running

Run python main.py -h for the docstring describing the command line interface.

Example

python main.py ./data/input/geometry/frame.csv ./data/input/profiles/circle.csv
