We created the equipment required for our project (except webcam, computer and tripod) using laser-cutter and 3d-printer in realraum Graz.
Since the main part of our project consists of wooden cards representing code (and thus forming a program), we used a lasercutter to cut (and engrave) those cards out of wood. The required files can be found in the lasercut folder.
To be able to point our webcam at our code-cards from above, we created a camera mount. The first part of that camera mount allows us to fixate a lath/piece of wood on a standard camera tripod. The second part allows us to mount the webcam on that piece of wood and point it at the code-cards. The required files can be found in the 3dprint folder.
To test our project, and to also use it in none-optimal light-conditions, we also used a standard black/white printer to print our code-cards in 2d. The required files can be found in the 2dprint folder.
