[Paraview] How to 3d print a point representation

[Jonathan Borduas]

Hi,

You either need a full color/clear printer or a 3D printing Service Provider.

I would use that technology: http://www.stratasys.com/3d-printers/j735-j750

This printer is often used to 3dprint medical models from DICOM and other medical formats.

You could use the Point Volume Interpolator (Gaussian Kernel) to convert your points into voxel.

From a user:

There is an option in ParaView to have a "point" representation of the data as opposed to surface. This creates an interesting view which I typically use as a poor man's volume rendering.  With recent advances in 3D printing I think it would be VERY interesting to attempt to pass this point-like data to a 3D printer where I can then have the points printed into a clear substrate. Is there a way to export these points as geometry which I can then pass off to a 3D printer?

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Alan
