This is a program to simulate the errors in delta printers to help one understand how modifying any of the correction parameters will effect the height map. It can also display errors in x, and y directions, as well as the magnitude of xy, and xyz errors. Custom color gradients are supported, including using alpha, making it easy to find test points for a least squares calibration routine. Images can be exported to any format Qt supports (PNG, BMP, JPG, PDF, etc). Simulation parameters can be saved/loaded in a simple xml format. This is really an all in one solution for simulation of delta printers. Its GPL3 licensed so you can modify it as you please. Code is written in C++/Qt so its cross platform. Vector code is provided in assembly for AVX, SSE, and a C scalar version, all of which is also cross platform (no excuses!) Its not a script, so there's no need for windows users to install python or some other interpreter (less excuses). Its quite fast as well!
