It will be outlined, that the existing tools are not sufficient for most users and therefore a new tool named 'Visicut' will be developed which will enable users to prepare their laser-jobs at home.Īs a base for Visicut and eventually much more specialized applications a user-space driver for laser-cutters named 'Liblasercut' will be build, which abstracts from the specific laser-cutter model. The goal of this bachelor thesis is to optimize this work-flow by removing unnecessary steps and make the most common jobs more easy. Currently working with a laser-cutter requires many unnecessary steps and much experience.
