I remember seeing somewhere on the web that the best way to create a true bas relief from a grayscale to g-code program is to paint the object in question white and then submerge the object into water that is slightly dyed. You then photograph the item from above.
With a little tweaking in your favorite photo program, the resulting image will then give you a better correspondence of height to greyscale. I have not yet tried this but I am anxious to give it a go. ----- Original Message ----- From: "BRIAN GLACKIN" <[email protected]> To: "Enhanced Machine Controller (EMC)" <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, March 12, 2009 12:16 PM Subject: Re: [Emc-users] need sample contouring program > Why not start with a photo of yourself and use the Image-to-Gcode feature. > That should generate a bas releif of your choice I would suspect. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Apps built with the Adobe(R) Flex(R) framework and Flex Builder(TM) are powering Web 2.0 with engaging, cross-platform capabilities.
