svg-tracer's Introduction

SVG Tracer

This application creates a vector graphic (SVG) from bitmap input (PNG).

It's specifically designed for interpreting crease patterns that contain a mix of solid and dashed lines. It will export an SVG that contains two paths: one containing the solid lines, and one containing dashed lines. This allows you to send the SVG directly to a laser cutter or any other desktop cutter (after specifying the cut settings for each type of path, of course!).

To use, follow these general steps:

  1. Take a photograph of the diagram you want to process.
  2. Use software like Preview to subtract any background from the image so you are left with a PNG containing only the lines.
  3. Upload the cleaned image to the app.
  4. Export the SVG and send to your cutting machine!
