| Hello,
my name is Lorenzo and I'm a 23 y/o CS student and spare time programmer.
In the last few months I've developed a software capable of converting a
3D model to a constructible and stable LEGO construction (supported model formats
are .gltf/.glb (extendable); very diffused in 3D modeling software).
The software runs locally and is provided with an UI, but it's easily convertible
to a headless software that can potentially run on a server (for a cloud-based
approach). It's a C++ software that heavily relies on NVIDIA GPU (CUDA) to
perform the conversion; with some work, can be extended to AMD GPU.
Is it something that can be of your interest?
e.g. it could be integrated to BrickLink Studio.
Do you have the contact of someone from LEGO I can reach out to either showcase
this software or ask for a grant for publishing it and use the LEGO brand?
As I'm not sure I can freely use it now.
Best regards,
thank you,
|

Studio already has a similar feature: https://studiohelp.bricklink.com/hc/en-us/articles/6508264220183-Sculpture

You should be able to, at least for free (gratis): there’s other such tools out
there.
You’ll need to respect the LEGO Group’s brands. There’s a document on LEGO.com
about fair use of the brand and logo.
Disclaimer: IANAL, I’m not talking for BrickLink, I’m not talknig for LEGO, I
may be a cat.
