SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CUSTOMIZATION OF OBJECTS IN ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING

摘要

Embodiments of this application relate to systems and methods which allow for 3-D printed objects, such as eyeglasses and wristwatches, for example, to be customized by users according to modification specifications that are defined and constrained by manufacturers. These modification specifications may be constrained by the manufacturers based on factors relating to the printability of a modified design.

主权项

1. A computer implemented method of creating customized wearable products using additive manufacturing, the method comprising:
receiving a 3-D printable file storing a baseline 3-D design for the wearable product, and customization data for the wearable product accounting for printability constraints of the baseline 3-D design; receiving a 3-D scan image associated with an anatomical feature of a user of the wearable product; receiving customization information indicative of a customization of the baseline 3-D design based on the 3-D scan image; and modifying the baseline 3-D design according to the received customization information and the customization data; obtaining a modified 3-D printable file; and manufacturing the customized wearable product according to the modified 3-D printable file using an additive manufacturing service.
