RH is the least of the issues in the chain.. it is far more an issue around the number crunching and RAM involved in slicing a model. Your best bet, in a phone, would be to setup a &#039;cloud&#039; RH that can use API&#039;s to ship off the STL to an &#039;online&#039; slicer that then ships the resultant g-code back to your phone.</p><p>But crunching models, particularly complex ones, on the phone is the biggest hurdle.. there is a surprising amount of grunt required to translate a mesh to linear gcode <img src="https://www.soliforum.com/img/smilies/wink.png" width="15" height="15" alt="wink" /></p><p>So anyway - if you want to tackle this at any stage, be concious that there is many abstracted layers here - Printer Control, Printer Configuration, Object Placement/Alignment, Then Slicing Parameters, Then Slicing it, and Finally, the brain dead simple act of streaming over usb-to-serial to your printer the resultant output. </p><p>You can actually achieve all of this right now... as long as you don&#039;t care to slice on the phone itself and ship in pre-factored gcode...</p>]]></content>

Surprised to see support for Windows Phone <img src="https://www.soliforum.com/img/smilies/big_smile.png" width="15" height="15" alt="big_smile" /> Windows Phone never gets anything interesting. This is a first. </p><p>My last 3 phones were Nokia and I&#039;m using a Nokia Windows Phone now. Sadly, I&#039;m moving onto both IOS and Android now.</p>]]></content>
