    Hi,

    Do you consider possibility of using TinyG to control Laser Plotter/engraver/cutter.

    Lasers are mostly 2D but it needs output for laser beam power control.

    Pls comment/share your thoughts.

    We have considered this possibility. To that end we have been experimenting with pulse-width modulation (PWM) channels in the development / edge branches. There is more work to be done – for sure – but the basic of modulating laser are in place.
