# ARCS - scratch hologram gcode generator

This tool acts as a slicer and generates gcode for scratch holograms.

## Input

The input is a r8g8b8a8 image:

- rgb - "color" values (can be grayscale)
- alpha - normalized height for the parallax effect

The rgb will be interpreted as grayscale values and dithered. The alpha will be reinterpreted:

- 0.0: fully inside the material
- 1.0: fully outside the material

## Output

gcode, which can be piped to a 3d printer.
