In this study, we have suggested a method to create 3D animation based on STL files which are easily available on the internet using Blender, which is one of the most popular open-source 3D modeling SW. And the procedure of making 3D animation using STL file was compared with those for OBJ or FBX files as well. Contrary to OBJ and FBX, STL files do not contain information regarding hierarchy, material and texture which are very important in making 3D animation. Especially the absence of hierarchy may cause serious problems in rigging, which involves movement of unwanted parts of 3D object during rigging process. It is demonstrated that the weight painting feature of Blender could be a solution to tackle the faulty rigging due to attributes of STL files. The effect of the sampling frequency and the resolution on the rendering time is also investigated with respect to the 3D mantis animation. It is also seen that insect models by 3D printer could be used as a new type of pedagogical material in the elementary science education.

This paper is compared the build time of scanning path as to laminate height of the SLC and STL file. The STL file improve the surface roughness according to slicing height. But it have the fault spending long time to the creation of scanning path by being lower slicing height. So we proposed the SLC file to improve this fault. Therefore this paper showed to the build time of scanning path by the increase of peace using the jewellery model.

This paper is described manufacturing to jewelry by using rapid prototype. At that time, the SLC file is useful for solved generating errors to part build file. Then. we have reduced the time of manufacturing complicated three-dimensional form. Generally, it is used the STL file for rapid prototype that it is necessary to considerable time when complicated firm as jewelry generated pan build file. But the SLC file is solved to problem because it consists of configuration of a section. Neter the less, Generating Part build file hate had a lot of problem when the SLC file is used.

This paper addresses the correlation between the change of file size and the scanning path build time by the slicing height of STL file. Though the study about STL file has been achieved quite actively scanning path build time using STL file is not investigated so much to be satisfied. The file size depends on the number of polygon created by the slicing height specified. And this number of polygons increases in a regular rate. The correlation between the number of polygons and the scanning path build time is examined and verified.

RP(Rapid Prototyping) 기술은 점점 그 활용범위를 넓혀가는 추세이며, 의료분야에서도 임플란트의 제작등에 RP 기술의 도입이 시도되고 있다. 뼈나 치아 등의 인체부속물들은 속성상 직접 그 형태를 파악하기가 힘들고, 따라서 그 대체물인 임플란트의 제작을 위해 MRI나 CT등의 장비가 사용되고 있다. 의료분야에까지 이르는 RP의 활발한 활용에도 불구하고, 아직 국내에서는 RP에 대한 인식이 부족하고 그 활용에 대한 연구가 거의 없는 상황이다. 본 논문은 MRI, CT등의 2차원 평면데이터로부터 직접 RP 기계의 표준입력화일인 STL 파일을 생성시키기 위한 방법을 제시한다. 그리고 MRI로 스캐닝된 사람의 머리뼈 형상을 삼각메쉬 형태의 STL 파일로 변화하여 RP 기계를 통한 실물 모형 제작이 가능하도록 한 예를 설명하였다.

This paper deals with effective using the IGES file for flexible data exchange among the other CAD/CAM system. If a data exchange between STL file and the neutral IGES file in Stereolithography system is available, a product design becomes more flexible. THere can be many restrictions and difficulties intranslating these data. First, an STL file follows two rules, such as right-hand rule, and vertex-to-vertex rule, thus requires a structural verification. Second, translation should be performed with minmal errors. It becomes very important to translate IGES file of limited kinds of entities fot the purpose of geometric information into STL file with minor data manipulation. The developed system suggests a good approach of translating the sampled B-spline surface of IGES and shows a potential linkage between IGES and STL format file.

In this paper, a new watermarking algorithm for STL files which contains 3D geometric information as triangular facets is proposed. STL files are widely used in rapid prototyping industry as a standard interchange format. The proposed algorithm inserts multi-bit watermark information into the surface normal vector and vertex description area of STL file without distorting the original 3D geometric information. According to the watermark bits, the position of normal vector and the direction of vertex sequence are modulated. The proposed algorithm is robust to the attack of changing the order of the triangular meshes. In addition, the invisibility requirement is also satisfied. Experiment results show that the proposed algorithm can encode and decode watermark bits into the various STL files without any distortion of 3D shape.

본 연구에서는 다종재료를 가공할 수 있는 RP(Rapid Prototyping)인 CAFL$^{VM}$의 구현을 위해 반드시 필요한 단면정보 추출기에 대하여 연구하였다. STL 3D 모형에서 단면정보를 추출하기 위해서, 패싯(facet)과 슬라이싱(slicing) 평면이 가질 수 있는 모든 경우를 고려한 알고리즘을 개발하였다. STL 파일의 구조적인 문제점 때문에 모호성과 처리량 증가 문제가 발생하지만, 본 연구에서는 창조 버퍼를 사용하여 이러한 문제점들을 효과적으로 해결하였으며, 이를 많은 STL 3D 샘플로 검증하였다.
