RxLIVE_handheld

1. Introduction

This repository provides the CAD files of our handheld device, which is used for sampling data for R2LIVE, R3LIVE and r3live dataset. In this repo, all of the modules are capable of FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) printable.

We release the all of our schematic files with STL files format (under the “release” directory), which can be imported and printed directly. Moreover, we also release the CAD source files (with suffix “*.SLDPRT and *.SLDASM”), which can be opened and edited with Solidworks.

Designer: Jiarong Lin and Xiyuan Liu
