The RepRap PV system is an ongoing project to design a PV (photovoltaic) system to power a RepRap 3d printer. This project was a semester project for the class MY5970/EE5900 Solar Hacking.

The RepRap PV system project was a semester project for the class MY5970/EE5900 Solar Hacking. The project consists of designing a solar PV system to power a RepRap 3-D printer.

The RepRap is an open-source low cost 3-D printer, which can print small objects out of plastic. What makes it interesting is the community that is already in place and growing for developers on the project.
