Comment on Resin printing. A call for information. (White papers, documented research or testing data)

  So, I spent the morning getting a dev environment setup for PrusaSlicer to use as a base for resin-only tools. Over the next month or so, I’ll take some time to strip out all the FDM support and get the slicer into a bare-bones state with only the existing resin features. Of course, it’ll be on GitHub.

  That is the point of this post: I am and am asking for data.

  While a valid point this doesn’t really help the OP.

  You can’t really. Advanced display technology is proprietary and locked down by NDA. There is no documentation about how they work. The reason the Prusa SL1 is so expensive is because they had to pay an insane amount to get the display documentation open sourced against a market where digital theft and manipulation are standard practice.

  As far as I’m concerned (personally/not speaking as a mod), the only resin printer that exists is the Prusa SL1 and it is simply too expensive for my use case. All the other printers look like a subscription software scam to me. I’m aware of the workarounds, but I see no value in these for my use cases.
