Boulecut Software

A small JavaScript/SVG calculator to provide the optimal cutting parameters for dicing optical materials. The application was required to run in a browser (to allow use on the shop floor), and a full graphical display of the solution was required.

Rather than use ActiveX or a Netscape plugin, a combination of JavaScript and SVG was used. This provided easy deployment and browser independence, along with rapid development.

Technical notes:

• based on JS/SVG
• deployed on Mozilla-like browsers, or IE with Adobe SVG plugin
