LET AI WATCH YOUR 3D PRINTER’S EVERY MOVE AND
ALERT YOU WHEN IT FAILS!
C
an’t sleep well when your 3D printer is
printing at night? Worried your print may fail
when you’re not home? The Spaghetti Detective
(thespaghettidetective.com) constantly watches
your prints when you can’t. It’s an algorithm
that uses deep learning to analyze webcam
images and alerts you when your print shows
signs of failing.
We designed The Spaghetti Detective (TSD) as a
plugin for the popular OctoPrint web interface for
3D printers. It comes with a host of other features
that let you print remotely with peace of mind:
• Remote webcam access. No port forwarding
or VPN required (merged from the OctoPrint
Anywhere plugin).
• Full remote control of your printer. Pause
or cancel the print. Check and set heater
temperatures or turn them off. Move the
print head.
• Upload G-code files and start a print remotely.
• Easy share of your webcam streaming or time-
lapses with your friend.
• Alert and print job notification (when a print
is done or canceled) via email, text, Telegram,
PushBullet, and Slack.
You can set up TSD in 56 seconds from your
OctoPrint web app or mobile app (Figure
A
).
Use it for free 10 hours a month with JPEG video
streaming, 50MB of secure tunneling to your
TSD
