Update: I didn't realize that mscomm32 wasn't part of windows 7 and later.. Here is an installer that will install all of the dependencies.
SphereBot.msi
It will put the controller in the start menu under SphereBot (points to program files or program files x86)
The Executable will actually run from anywhere afterwards though..
This software works with arduino based sphere bots. It will turn 2 color Images into paths. This thing includes a sketch for the arduino, and an executable to convert bitmaps and send them strait to the spherebot.
I am adding features to import dxf drawings and existing gcode. Thingiverse wont just let me upload code, so I included a bender dxf.
If anyone is interested, the VB6 source code is included in the zip file. I apologize now for the lack of naming controls, but this thing was just thrown together. I will clean it up a little later :)
Here is a video of making Patric.
