Hi all,
thanks for your amazing work.

I am reproducing the DIGIT sensor and I have some commercialized digit samples too. I was comparing the performances and I decided to open the commercialized DIGIT and I saw a difference in the thickness of the acrylic window. In the specs, it is written the acrylic is laser cut from a 4mm thick acrylic, but the one commercialized is 5.5 mm thick. I think the 5.5 mm thickness is the right one, otherwise the acrylic would not fit perfectly in the black top case. Is it an error of the specs?
Thank you

Hi @gabrielecaddeo, the commercialized version uses injection molded parts and the dimensions have been increased to meet a common width of the acrylic sheet. Both 4mm and 5.5mm can be used depending on the mechanical enclosure, the 3D printable parts in this repository would dictate which acrylic height should be used.
