A method and a system including at least three image capturing devices for generating depth information are proposed. Multiple depth maps associated with a specific scene are obtained, where each of the depth maps corresponds to a different group of the image capturing devices and a different estimated region of the specific scene. For each pixel corresponding to the specific scene, whether the pixel is within a joint overlapping region of its estimated region is determined. If no, the depth information of the pixel is set according to its depth value in the depth map corresponding to a non-joint overlapping region of its estimated region. If yes, the depth information of the pixel is set according to its depth values in the depth maps corresponding to the joint overlapping region within its estimated region. An integrated depth map is generated by using the depth information of all the pixels.

A printing method using a low melting-point material is disclosed. The method first controls a nozzle of a 3D printer to move to a position corresponding to an internal-contour of a 3D model for printing the internal-contour upon a printing platform, then controls the nozzle to move to other position corresponding to an exterior-contour of the 3D model for printing the exterior-contour. After completing the exterior-contour, the method controls the nozzle to move inwardly to leave away from the exterior-contour, and then changes a related position between the nozzle and the printing platform upon z-axis for a next printing-layer. The method prevents a drooling event of the low melting-point material occurs at the exterior-contour and destroys an appearance of the 3D model.

A self-alignment filling level detecting device has a reflector and a sensor detachable from each other. The sensor has a light emitter, a light sensor, and a controller. The light sensor receives different light intensities when the reflector is assembled to the sensor and when the reflector is not assembled to the sensor. Thus, the controller determines whether the reflector has been accurately engaged and aligned with the sensor or not based on sensing results of the light sensor. Since the reflector and the sensor are detachable from each other, either the reflector or the sensor can be replaced individually if any one of them malfunctions.

Self-alignment filling level detecting device

The light-emitting element and the image sensor are located on the first boundary with a specific distance therebetween. The reflective strip is located on the second to fourth boundaries. When the touch object touches the sensing area, a first and a second light path from the light-emitting element to the image sensor are blocked to form a real and a virtual image such that the processing unit computes the coordinate of the touch object according to the real and the virtual images. A touch method is disclosed herein as well.
