Hey guys
-
Thanks for checking in, MB. You should go on shark tank with that contraption. I can't tell you how many times I've wanted a robotic digitisation booth where I can hang objects and have them rotate. Then have a shelf that is able to move up and down via some ballscrews and motors, and then on the shelf there is a camera that is attached to a ring flash on a gimbal that allows the camera and flash to look up/down. With this setup and the ability to control everything with software, build a pipeline that for any object you hang in the centre, the camera will take multiple pictures of the object with varying degrees of cross-polarised light, then the pictures will get fed into some other software that will build 3d assets of the objects.
I've needed that so many times, but I end up having to design it myself every time.
Congratulations on the marriage and the fond memories of it!

Very cool seeing you here again.

Marriage is an entire different mindset than cohabitation, for sure. A very nice one, I might add.
I’m a little surprised you didn’t experience the same sort of treachery in academia, humans being what they are. Perhaps it is there but corporate types just sell their integrity much cheaper. I suppose I’m old enough now that if someone wants to employ such tactics I see them coming from far away and pull the rug out from under them first.
I think the digitization booth is very cool. Share some examples! My brothers and I grew up with foils and masks but never developed much prowess. Probably for the best given what little savages we were.
Hang around. It’s the same place but different if that makes sense.

You know people say that the day they got married was the best day of their life
You may want to reconsider when you have experienced the much-anticipated day of your divorce
Some of us don't.
My wife has two siblings. Between the three couples, no divorces. 126 total years married. If one or more of us doesn't drop dead (always a possibility), I think we'll all make at least 50 years, each.

Would you be willing to post a picture of your robot contraption?
See how special @Moonbat is?
If it were anyone else, we would be asking to see his wedding pictures instead. -

Proud supporter of Plan 2525. Everything you think, do and say will be in the pill you took today.

So do hotter and younger chicks.

For Christ's sake don't ask Jon to post a picture of his robot contraption.
Not sure if I would call that a robot...

Also since once upon time this was a music forum, when I was figuring out the motor controllers I spent a day in order to do this: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/y2ltshr9px5px69ahy5mo/PXL_20240702_221257789.TS.mp4?rlkey=cn1vem7aclbo3k7zd5g42zl45&st=w82plzqi&dl=0
I confess I did find it quite fun.

Ha. Nice.
