Ultimaker Innovators list 2020
SandervG posted a topic in Official news,
We wish to celebrate and honor the innovators that push forward the field, technology and world. We opted to not present it as a competition or ranked list. Every innovator has earned his spot on that list in their own way. We also look at the 3D printing industry as a whole and not limit the list to those only using Ultimaker.-

Saw that a few days ago and is indeed the way to go.
Slic3r already has something like that (but ofc not automagic)
http://manual.slic3r.org/expert-mode/variable-layer-height
The only issue I can see (I mean from a practical point) is that when you print smaller layers from 0.2 to 0.1 for example, the amount of filament changes (mm3) so in theory the best thing to do also would be to adjust the temperature of the heater. And that could be tricky because if you change the temperature the plastic 'look' like color, gloss/matte changes, so it could leave some color artifacts.
Anyhow it could be really fun.
