Patent ID: 10394221

Abstract:
Systems, devices, and methods are described herein for transforming three dimensional (3D) video data into a 3D printable model. In one aspect, a method for transforming 3D video data may include receiving 3D video data indicated or selected for 3D printing. The selected portion or 3D video data, which may include a frame of the 3D video data, may be repaired or modified to generate a 3D model that define at least one enclosed volume. At least one of the enclosed volumes of the 3D video data may be re-oriented based on at least one capability of a target 3D printing device. In some aspects, the re-orienting may be performed to optimize at least one of a total print volume or print orientation of the at least one enclosed volume. In some aspects, the method may be performed in response to a single selection or action performed by a user.
