Application for converting images to STL (3D-model for printing)
The program window is as follows:
Open Image(s)
Opens one or more imagesAuto Crop
Automatic cropping of opened files if there are transparent areas
Density
Pixel size on a real model in mmMax/Min Height
Max/Min thickness of the model in mmMask Mode
:Transparency
Color
Choose a base color that will not be used when creating the model (mask)Height Mode
:Black
White
During image processing, a copy of it in grayscale will be created. If the "Black" mode is selected, the darker the pixel, the greater the thickness of the final model in the place corresponding to this pixel, and vice versa, if the "White" mode is selected
- Choose a place to save files.
STL Format
:ASCII
/BIN
Choose a method to save the destination file. ASCII is a plain text file. BIN is a binary format. It is recommended to use a binary format, as large models in text format can have a very large size
Execete
Begin the process of converting- This shows the progress of execution of conversion
- The color palette of the selected file is displayed here. The "amount" field shows the number of pixels of the corresponding color in the "color" field
All open files are displayed here. Access to them is carried out on tabs with file names
In the end, a stl file with a 3D model will be created, which can be viewed using the appropriate application (for example, the 3DView plugin for Google Chrome browser):
