Custom PCB Fabrication

The LumenLab was built in two phases. The first phase (labeled as "Version 1") was a prototype that used through-hole components hand-soldered on to several perf boards. This was a good start, especially for making progress in the early stages of the software development, however the components did not work exactly as desired, making its maintanance more of a hassle than it was a benefit. Designing a PCB to be professionally manufactured became a clear and obvious choice, allowing the LumenLab to be scaled into a clean, stable device.

The LumenLab PCB was designed using KiCad 9.0.5

Still to be finalized, however you can view the tentative list of components here.

A 3D printed enclosure will be created to give the final device a clean look.
