We honor trade names/trade marks and respect others who honor ours as well, so we've been trying not to use any SL*/DL*/UV* acronyms. What i'm going to be doing is putting together a google form ( ill link it here when i get it up) so you can enroll to be in the ~8 or so beta spots left. 2 spots are taken already, per commitments this weekend and talks at maker faire with some other guys. I'm not sure how we'll select the remaining beta machine users, but we do want you to be sure you can participate actively in the testing phase. We're trying to make sure that we focus on the hardware side primarily, such as assembly issues/setup issues etc... As far as software/projector issues, that's outside our control for now, so the testing is primarily on does the hardware do what it needs to do
So if you can't commit to building/testing the hardware/electronics in ~1 week or so, please don't throw your hat in the ring. I'd like to have the 10 beta's assembled and 'air' printing within a week from shipping them to you, so we can rapidly nail down the mechanics. There will most likely be a few parts you'll have to print, such as http://repables.com/r/349/ which is the antibacklash nut. So having a working FFF Printer would be handy too and will be reflected in the beta kit price. If you're looking at which projector to use, i'm still sticking with the acer P1283, but you can use others too, in fact it wouldn't be bad to have other models to list in the thread about projectors. The only thing i did was remove the uv filter and color wheel, and i ended up turning the brightness down to only 20% so might not have needed to take all that off anyways Comments/suggestions below guys!
