Abstract

IoT and embedded electronics is getting popular due to its versatile applications in various fields for domestic, commercial and industrial usage. However electronics or electrical systems that are primarily built using electronics, needs enclosures to protect it from the environment as well as for maintaining its privacy concerns. 3D printers are valuable to rapidly prototype/fabricate/build enclosures for custom applications. The steps, involved in rapid prototyping using 3D printers start from understanding the specification and measurement requirements e.g. colour, look, dimensions, and tolerances. Followed by Certainly! Cura is a popular slicing software used in 3D printing that converts your 3D models (STL files) into a format (G-code) that your 3D printer can understand. Integrating IoT (Internet of Things) with 3D printing using Modified OctoPrint. It can greatly enhance the functionality and accessibility of your 3D printing setup. OctoPrint is an open-source software that allows you to control and monitor your 3D printer remotely via a web interface. By adding IoT capabilities, you can further automate and monitor your printing processes, making them more efficient and comfort
