The only issue with lung ventilators is the software to make them go on and off at a breathing intervals
that way ANYONE with a 3d printer can just use the basic hardware from their printer after printing the parts
That may be an issue
hello
I am talking about EXACTLY THAT
I have a 3D printer, but I am out of filament
I have one roll of PLA left
i have a detailed spect of a real world ventilator
i..e how the software functions
everything required to implement in Marlin 2.0
I have researched ventilators for a different project. I know what they are
I wanted to make a DIY ventilated mask for woodworking
then ANY 3d printer using Marlin 2.0 can repurpose their control board for the ventillator
Faceshield with a cloth fitting for the face and a ventilator that pressurises the mask
provided they can find suitable sensors
which was next on my list
I got to the scheme, but then I found a faceshield at an affordable price that was ready-made
they built an industry portable ventilator into a suitcase using custom PCB
but given they included all the specs and schmetics
Arduino, Pi, chip-24 anything can be used as brains nowadays
yeah, especially if the pdf i have is reimplemented in marlin
it would in essence turn the electronics of your 3d printer into the electronics of the ventilator (after printing the nessecary parts)
AT tiny 45/85 chip can be programmed with Arduino/Pi/PC and then used for youtr project
yup
Much more spreadable solution
that's why i am looking at a Marlin implementation
Arduino board is a bit of an overkill for an implementation
You want a lover level electronics there
that firmware already has all the common libraries for various different pieces of interface hardware
AT tiny costs up to 2.5$ for a piece
only thing need is a ventillator rather than 3d printer application
Arduino is like $20
yup
but AT-Tiny has fewer PWMs
You can output 20 custom boards with AT chip at a price of one arduino
And same function
isn't AT-Tiny based onf the ESP-838?
Well you only need so many modes of operation for that AT tiny chip
