About: Polar plotter

An Entity of Type: software, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

A polar plotter also known as polargraph or Kritzler is a plotter which uses bipolar coordinates to produce vector drawings using a pen suspended from strings connected to two pulleys at the top of the plotting surface. This gives it two degrees of freedom and allows it to scale to fairly large drawings simply by moving the motors further apart and using longer strings. Some polar plotters will integrate a raising mechanism for the pen which allows lines to be broken while drawing. The system has been used by a number of artists and makers, including:

Property Value
dbo:abstract
  • Un trazador polar también conocido como polargraph o Kritzler es un trazador que usa coordenadas bipolares para producir dibujos vectoriales usando una pluma suspendida de cuerdas conectadas a dos poleas en la parte superior de la superficie de trazado. Esto le da dos grados de libertad y le permite escalar dibujos bastante grandes simplemente moviendo los motores más lejos y usando cuerdas más largas. El sistema ha sido utilizado por varios artistas y creadores: * Jürg Lehni y Uli Franke (2002) ​ * Ben Leduc-Mills (2010) ​ * Alex Weber (2011) ​ * Harvey Moon ​ * Sandy Nobel (2012) ​ (es)
