Title: Simple 2D-Video digitizing
Post by: cnc_tech on May 01, 2013, 04:31:13 AM

Dear all,

I ´m looking for a simple way to scan X/Y values (points) by using any of the video camara plugin.
This is needed for a very basic manual 2D shape digitizing.
So I simply have to collect the X/Y DRO´s to a file, after I have done the correct jog move to the next sample.

Thank you for any suggestion
Joerg

Joerg,
You can use CopyCat to acquire points. You record the axis location when aligned with the camera crosshairs
and it generates a gcode file.

Not aware of anything which automaticaly does the above.
