Augmented Reality for 3D Printing

thingiverse

A friend's difficulty in designing his first 3D printed part inspired the creation of an augmented reality (AR) viewer for previewing and interacting with STL models in real-world settings without printing. This project is an update from a previous Computational Photography course and uses the ArUco library, especially its JavaScript version for potential web applications. The program, named arstl, supports both ASCII and binary STL files and overlays them on fiducial markers tracked by OpenGL shaders. Future improvements include more realistic plastic rendering with bump mapping and subsurface scattering. Code is available on GitHub under an ISC License, while the STL parsing portion can be used freely in public domain projects. A video demonstration is also available on YouTube. Check out the source code and instructions at https://github.com/nrpatel/arstl.
