LIT3D – 3D Printed Photograph Visualization & Generation System

A lithophane is a thin, translucent plaque that creates a 3D image when lit from behind. We have designed and built a system for visualizing and generating lithophanes, focusing on functionality, reliability, and ease of use to make the process simple for anyone wanting to create them from their photos. We have integrated our system into Shopify, allowing users to quickly and securely preview, customize, and order their Lithophanes from all their devices, including phones, tablets, laptops, and desktops.

The tools currently available do not allow users to preview the finished product. Those that do exist are using outdated techniques, have low performance, and are very complicated to use. LiT’s 3D viewer was designed with these issues in mind from the beginning, to provide the opposite experience.
