SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SELECTIVELY PRINTING THREE-DIMENSIONAL OBJECTS WITHIN MEDIA ASSETS BASED ON 3D PRINTER CAPABILITY

摘要

Methods and systems are provided herein for delivering an appropriate design file for printing of a three-dimensional object based on a determined printer capability. The determined printer capability may be, for example, the capabilities of a printer that is operatively linked with the user equipment. The determined printer capability may also or alternatively correspond to, for example, one or more entries in a user profile. In particular, a selection of an object in a video may be received at the user equipment. A set of design files associated with that object is identified, where each design file describes a three-dimensional representation of the object. A design file from the set of design files may be selected based on the determined printer capability. A request may be transmitted to the printer to print the three-dimensional representation of the object described by the selected design file.

1. A method for delivering an appropriate design file for printing of a three-dimensional object, the method comprising:
determining a printer capability associated with a user equipment; receiving, at the user equipment, a selection of an object in a video; identifying a set of design files associated with the object, wherein each design file of the set of design files describes a three-dimensional representation of the object; selecting a design file from the set of design files based on the determined printer capability; and transmitting a request to a printer to print the three-dimensional representation of the object described by the selected design file.
