SensiCut: Material-Aware Laser Cutting Using Speckle Sensing and Deep Learning

SensiCut augments standard laser cutters with a speckle sensing add-on that can (a) identify materials often found in workshops, including visually similar ones. (b) SensiCut’s user interface integrates material identification into the laser cutting workflow and also offers suggestions on how to adjust a design’s geometry based on the identified material (e.g., adjusting the size of an earring cut from felt since the kerf for felt is larger than for other materials). (c) Each identified sheet is cut with th
