History

edit

OctoEverywhere was created in 2020 as an OctoPrint plugin[4] to solve the issue of insecure internet remote access[5]. It has since been maintained by its developer, Quinn Damerell, and the OctoEverywhere community.

Features

edit

OctoEverywhere's primary feature is allowing for secure remote access control and monitoring of 3D printer over the public internet[6]. Modern 3D printers support control via web interfaces like OctoPrint, Mainsail, or Fluidd, etc. OctoEverywhere acts as a reverse http proxy[7], allowing remote access to the web interfaces over the public internet. 3D printing slicing software[8] and 3rd party iPhone and Android apps[9] can also be used remotely using OctoEverywhere's remote access technology.

In 2022, OctoEverywhere released Gadget[10], its AI 3D printing failure detection service. Due to the physical nature of additive 3D printing, 3D printers are prone to various print failures.[11] OctoEverywhere's Gadget AI uses a camera built into the 3D printer or an external webcam to process periodic snapshots during the print. The snapshots are analyzed for 3D printing failures such as spaghetti, adhesion issues, layer shifts, etc. If an issue is detected, the user is alerted or the print is paused.

Additional OctoEverywhere features include 3D printer notifications, live streaming, and more.
