Resin temperature control
Shahin, Could you consider adding temperature monitoring and logging of the resin?
I have seen first hand the positive effects of mild heat to the quality of the print.
Resin viscosity is reduced and curing is faster and better controlled.
I intend to use LED light source and although polymerization is exothermic, an additional, regulated heat source would be a nice addition.
Controlling this variable would increase print quality.
I am thinking maybe a peristaltic pump to ensure more even heat distribution and resin agitation at the same time.

Re: Resin temperature control
The most likely you can already do it through exec support. Specially ExecReturn could be useful as you can compare the result of the command.

Re: Resin temperature control
I'm working on a project that could help with this... http://raspberrypirobot.blogspot.co.uk/ … -nail.html . One of the temperature sensors in my configuration is on the LCD near the vat and outputs from the Arduino could then go to the RPi for detection by NanoDlp across the GPIO interface.
