低成本数字制造设备的可用性使新的用户群体能够参与事物的设计和制造。然而，软件，以协助从设计到实际制造的过渡目前被忽视。在本文中，我们介绍PacCAM，一个系统，用于包装2D零件在一个给定的源材料制造使用2D切割机。我们的解决方案结合了计算机视觉来捕捉源材料形状，并结合了2D刚体模拟和捕捉的用户界面。一项用户研究表明，与使用传统的绘图工具相比，参与者可以更快地使用我们的系统进行布局。PacCAM可满足各种2D制造应用的需求，并有助于减少材料浪费。
The availability of low-cost digital fabrication devices enables new groups of users to participate in the design and fabrication of things. However, software to assist in the transition from design to actual fabrication is currently overlooked. In this paper, we introduce PacCAM, a system for packing 2D parts within a given source material for fabrication using 2D cutting machines. Our solution combines computer vision to capture the source material shape with a user interface that incorporates 2D rigid body simulation and snapping. A user study demonstrated that participants could make layouts faster with our system compared with using traditional drafting tools. PacCAM caters to a variety of 2D fabrication applications and can contribute to the reduction of material waste.
