Title: I need a Linux-based photogrammetry application program for a 3D printer.
Post by: xor on February 03, 2026, 07:50:42 AM

I need a Linux-based photogrammetry application program for a 3D printer.

Alternatively;
could someone write a plugin for Blender that converts photos to 3D?
Or could someone develop a program that can do what's needed using AI?!

Now this request has become a kind of search engine poll title,
but at least it's contributing to increasing TCL's brand awareness in a different way :D

You need to learn how to do some of your own work.

Your design first needs to be in an  STL  format.
google  blender stl export

Once it's in an STL format, it needs to be run through a slicer
to convert it to  G-code.

There are programs available for Linux that can do that.
google  cura
google  prusa
