dear LinuxCNC developers,


we are pleased to announce the release 2 of OpenCN with the following features :



Framework :

  *   x86 and ARM (Raspberry Pi 4) HW platforms
  *   Hard real time support with Xenomai/Cobalt in AMP configuration
  *   Linux kernel 5.4 LTS
  *   Stable EtherCAT Master @10 kHz with distributed clock running on a 
dedicated CPU core
  *   Externalized (remote TCP/IP) GUI based on Qt (Linux, Windows, Android)
  *   Common code source for x86 and ARM



Path Planning :

  *   Compressing of small G01 segments by cubic B-Splines
  *   G^2 continuity between all curve types
  *   Feedrate planning with acceleration and jerk control for 3 axes
  *   Detection of cusps and handling of exact stops
  *   Robust path planning algorithms tested with large size G code files



Who we are :

We are a group of researchers in different fields ranging from mechanics, 
control to computer science, allied in the mecatronYx group at the Western 
University of Applied Sciences HEIG-VD, CH-1400 Yverdon-les-Bains.



What is OpenCN, and why we developed it :

OpenCN is a minimalistic CNC for academic purposes, where the following most 
difficult issues are handled :



  *   a framework mixing hard real time requirements with high computation power
  *   advanced path planning algorithms

It is mainly developed for EtherCAT high end drives (e.g. www.triamec.com)



We hope finding resonance for the OpenCN project (new developers, funding, etc)
