Orion is a user interface designed to control Odyssey. It's tailored for the Apollo series of control boards and the Prometheus MSLA Open Source Resin 3D Printer.
⚠️ Orion is currently under active development. We recommend exercising caution when using it for the first time and advise against unattended printing.
Orion is designed to make 3D printing with the Prometheus MSLA Open Source Resin 3D Printer and Apollo series of control boards a breeze. It provides:
- A user-friendly interface for controlling mSLA printers
- Real-time monitoring of print progress and status
- File management for uploading and selecting print files
- Customizable print settings for optimal results
Orion offers a range of features designed to enhance your 3D printing experience:
- User-friendly Interface: An intuitive interface for controlling mSLA printers, suitable for both beginners and experienced users.
- Real-time Monitoring: Keep track of your print progress and status in real-time.
- File Management: Simplified process of uploading and selecting print files.
- Customizable Print Settings: Fine-tune your prints according to your specific needs.
To get started with Orion, follow one of these steps:
PrometheusOS is an all-in-one solution that includes both Odyssey and Orion. Here's how to install it:
- Prerequisites: Ensure you have a Raspberry Pi model compatible with PrometheusOS.
- Installation: Visit the PrometheusOS GitHub page and follow the detailed instructions there to install PrometheusOS on your Raspberry Pi.
If you prefer to have more control over the build process, you can manually compile the Orion project using the Dart and Flutter extensions in Visual Studio Code. Here's how:
- Prerequisites: Ensure that you have Visual Studio Code installed on your machine. You also need to have the Dart and Flutter extensions installed.
- Open the Project: Open the Orion project in Visual Studio Code.
- Prepare the Environment: Fetch the project dependencies by running the command
flutter pub getin the terminal. - Build the Project: Build the project by running the command
flutter build linux --target-platform linux-arm64in the terminal. - Verify the Build: Check the
builddirectory in the Orion project directory for the compiled Flutter bundle. - Deploy the Application: Deploy the Flutter bundle to your Raspberry Pi.
The orionpi.sh script is a convenient way to build and deploy Orion to a Raspberry Pi. Here's how to use it:
- Prerequisites: Ensure that you have flutterpi_tool installed on your host machine. On the target machine (Raspberry Pi), you should have flutter-pi installed.
- Prepare the Script: Download the
orionpi.shscript from the Orion repository and give it execute permissions using the commandchmod +x orionpi.sh. - Run the Script: Run the script with the necessary arguments. The command should look like this:
./orionpi.sh <IP_ADDRESS> <USERNAME> <PASSWORD>. - Wait for Completion: The script will build the Flutter bundle, copy it to the Raspberry Pi, and run it.
- Verify the Deployment: Check if the Orion application is running on your Raspberry Pi.
