Zusammenfassung:Method of and apparatus for stereolithographically forming a three-dimensional object from layers of a material capable of physical transformation upon exposure to synergistic stimulation. The object is formed by receiving data descriptive of cross-sections of the three-dimensional object, forming layers of said material, and selectively exposing said layers to synergistic stimulation according to said data descriptive of said cross-sections to build up the three-dimensional object layer-by-layer. The data descriptive of at least a portion of at least one cross-section is modified by shifting or copying the data from a first cross-section to a second cross-section which is located at least one layer thickness from said first cross-section and using said modified data in forming said three-dimensional object.
