Looking for the right parts

A project log for Vulcan Scanner

Dome-shaped sensor with a triangular handle distinguished by a silver-colored readout portion and a blue handle with black grips

The design of this project has been done a long time ago. In the future of this project this will become clear.

It is my task to make it an actually working device.
Raspberry Pi is a good choice, it is a fully working computer, has a working operating system, ready to connect a display equipped with HDMI interface.

Yesterday I looked up some techniques to smooth 3D printed parts. I print with PLA and will use something like:

- Bondo 3M glazing and spot putty

- A filler and sandable primer, 2 in 1-type

We’ll see what kinds of results this will yield.

Once I am home I’ll try and hook up a few sensors that I still have, on a raspi, and start looking up how other ppl log and/or store.
