Abstract

See full text

A three-dimensional printing apparatus receives or generates three-dimensional data representing a shape of a three-dimensional object to be formed, and generates cross-sectional image data from the three-dimensional data to form the three-dimensional object in accordance with the generated cross-sectional image data. The apparatus includes a display that presents images, a generator that adds thickness information to the cross-sectional image data of each layer of the object, thus generating layer image data three-dimensionally representing each layer of the object, an output interface that outputs the generated layer image data, and a display controller that causes the display to present a first image upon formation of a predetermined layer of the object in accordance with the cross-sectional image data of the predetermined layer. The first image is based on the layer image data of the predetermined layer output from the output.
