Original Abstract Submitted
systems and methods for printing a 3d object on a 3d printer, including: receiving (i) a digital 3d model comprising a 3d geometry of the 3d object, (ii) a 2d displacement map, (iii) one or more maximal displacement values, and (iv) a printing resolution, calculating a displacement limit for each vertex of the 3d model based on the one or more maximal displacement values, applying local tessellation on the 3d model geometry in accordance with the 2d displacement map and with the printing resolution, thereby obtaining a tessellated 3d model, applying the displacement information of the 2d displacement map to the tessellated 3d model in accordance with the calculated displacement limit relative to each vertex, thereby obtaining a displaced 3d model, and printing the 3d object with the 3d printer based on the displaced 3d model.
