THREE-DIMENSION EVOLUTION: FROM ILLUSION OF THREE-DIMENSIONAL IMAGE (IN GRAPHICS AND PAINTINGS) TO THREE-DIMENSIONAL OBJECTS IN REAL SPACE (3D PRINTING)

Abstract

Purpose of Article. The article is devoted to clarifying the features of stereographic images, the main aspects of using 3D printing as modern creative technology in various fields of human activity. Methodology. General scientific and concrete-scientific methods are applied in the work: theoretical – to clarify the conceptual-categorial apparatus of research; analytical – to analyze philosophical, art, history, cultural literature on the topic of research; historical – to clarify the development of stereography and the stages of formation of 3D-technologies; comparative-typological – to compare the specifics of using three-dimensional printing in various fields of human activity. Scientific Novelty. The genesis of 3D measurement features from the illusion of volumetric flat images to the creation (printing) of unique 3D objects is considered for the first time. The article analyzes the specificity of stereoscopic images and the principles of creating three-dimensional products using 3D printers. Conclusions. It has been proven that 3D printing is developing globally thanks to many advantages and affordable prices. 3D printing is a technology that allows going through the entire chain of the design process in a closed and continuous cycle: from the generation of an idea to the final design result.
