    Interested to see what metallic or glossy filaments look like.
    This would be very cool if you did it for kits though, like print every leaf of the sunflower and then apply heat to curl slightly making you end up with a pop up still image, or like the AT AT kit you can get and 3d print

    This is truly brilliant!
    The first time I loaded white filament after having printed in red, and watched my extruder push a pinkish colour out as I purged the line, made me think why isn't there a print head that takes RGB (and perhaps white, black and grey) filaments in and has a slicer plugin to tune the mixing of them?
    This takes that same concept and achieves it in a new and elegant way!
    Fast printing, input shaping and perhaps 16 million colour printing? What an incredible time to be alive! :)

      RGB uses light. I.e. monitor, TV. (additive color)
      It would use CMYK, Cyan Magenta Yellow and blacK like traditional 4 color printing process (subtractive color). But ideally adding white and more colors or metallic or specialized colors, materials.

      @@timd9430 You're totally correct, I had the same thought after I wrote this and considered coming back to correct!
      It would be more like mixing paint / regular printing, and rely on subtractive primaries (Red, Blue, Yellow).
      Also lithophanes are traditionally printed vertically to gain more precision / detail so not sure how this affects resolution.
      Ultimately though it seems to be a fantastic idea, can't believe it hasn't been thought of before

      There are mixing extruders (often called 2 in 1 out, or 3 in 1 out) and slicer plugins to adjust the mixing ratio. The problem with that approach is that molten plastic is super viscous, and instead of getting a nicely mixed flow, you get splotches of two colors.

    The timing on this is incredible! It's currently 2:22 a.m. and I've been struggling for over a year to find the perfect medium to complete a 90% finished gift for my father in memoriam to my great grandfather. I am very familiar with additive technology and CNC altogether, holding 26 certifications in manufacturing and currently working at a company building FDM machines myself; however, being only 18 yrs old, there are of course a number of esoteric manufacturing techniques ive yet to encounter. The closest I'd come to finding just the right solution was lithophanes, though something was telling me to hold off for a better one. Given that it was just fathers day, I've been contemplating this very issue since having woken up yesterday. This is it!

    I've been working on similar software but it's way behind the quality this thing is putting out. The UI and polish on this deserves acclaim, doing edge detection and filament fill patterns in itself is quite complex. One thing that is not shown here is there's a limit to how small you can go and not smear pixels, I've yet to determine that limit. The tolerance will be very printer dependent.

    Minor comment (sorry for being a wise-ass): Other colours do "exist", but our eyes can only see three of them. The reason RGB screens work for us is because we have R, G and B receptors in our eyes, so our eyes cannot see a difference between, for example, a colour that is in between two colours or an equivalent mix of those two colours. Mixing those colours doesn't "create" a new colour, it is just a mix of those two, but it looks the same to our eyes as a solid colour that our receptors respond the same way to. For this reason, animals with different colour receptors would not see those colours on a print or screen the same way as we do. RGB (or CMYK) is tuned to our eyes.

      @spencerhanson7808 11 місяців тому +1

      Light of other colors can partially excite the rgb receptors of our eyes and the proportion of how excited those receptors are is the color we perceive.
      So we can make an rgb pixel that will present red, green, and blue in a way that will excite the receptors in the eye the same way that light of a certain wavelength would.

    • @LostInTech3D
      @LostInTech3D  11 місяців тому

      It's quite complicated but the one thing that helped me is that the sliders arent "in order", they will go from lowest to highest not left to right, and the height to colour ratio is set by the algorithm (I think default is "combo"). This is where, if you aren't getting what you want, you might need to mess with the contrast on the original image.
      I didn't want to get into it too much because I don't 100% get it either yet.
