Abstract
A 3D printer includes: an object-forming unit for forming an object by laminating an object material at an object-forming point based on a design data; an image capturing unit for capturing an image of the object formed by the object-forming unit; and a shape measurement unit for measuring a cross section of the object based on the image captured by the image capturing unit while the object is under formation by the object-forming unit.
