Abstract
Provided are a device and a method of generating printing information. The method includes acquiring at least one image part by splitting a basic image acquired based on a user input; determining a target article corresponding to the basic image from a three-dimensional (3D) article list stored in a database (DB) by using the at least one image part; providing a graphical user interface (GUI) capable of editing a shape of the target article according to a user input; and editing the shape of the target article, based on a user input via the GUI, and generating printing information used to 3D print the edited target article.
Claims20
A method of generating printing information, the method comprising:
- acquiring at least one image part by splitting a basic image acquired based on a user input;
- determining a target article corresponding to the basic image from a three-dimensional (3D) article list stored in a database (DB) by using the at least one image part;
- providing a graphical user interface (GUI) capable of editing a shape of the target article according to a user input;
- and
- editing the shape of the target article, based on a user input via the GUI, and generating printing information used to 3D print the edited target article.
A device for generating printing information, the device comprising:
- an input unit configured to receive a user input;
- a DB configured to store a 3D article list;
- and
- a controller configured to acquire at least one image part by splitting a basic image acquired based on an input received via the input unit, to determine a target article corresponding to the basic image from a 3D article list stored in the DB by using the at least one image part, to provide a GUI capable of editing a shape of the target article according to a input received via the input unit, and to edit the shape of the target article, based on a user input via the GUI, and generate printing information used to 3D print the edited target article.
