## Introduction
The mcopy project is comprised of software and hardware for optical printers, built with repurposed broken projectors.
#### Components
* Sequencer desktop app
* Scripting language, called mscript, for complex sequences
* Arduino firmware for projectors, cameras, lights and existing printers
* 3D models of parts
## Software
The mcopy desktop app is an Electron-based project which can be built for any platform.
## Hardware
## Why?
I'm interested in expanding the viability and access of the 16mm film format and to repurpose thre rising tide of discarded film technology.
