3D DIGITAL RIGHTS MANAGEMENT IN 3D PRINTING

摘要

Systems, methods, and media are provided for managing digital rights and pre-validating structural integrity in three-dimensional (3D) printing. In one example, a system includes at least one module executing on one or more computer processors, the at least one module receiving a request from a user and printing a 3D object by a three-dimensional (3D) printer or printing service, Print the 3D object by receiving conditional approval from the owner of the digital rights of the 3D object. Conditional approval includes printing specifications or restrictions. At least one module, when printed by a 3D printer or printing service, pre-verifies the digital model on which the 3D object is based, for structural integrity. In response to the received conditional acknowledgment, the at least one module sends the command to the 3D printer or printing service to print the 3D object.
