3D Viewer for 2D Images
3D Image Stack Viewer (Plane, Volume & STL Tools)
Work with common image stacks like PNG, JPG, and TIF using a simple workflow for working in the 3D space built around three tools: Plane Viewer, Volume Viewer, and STL Wizard.
A Simple Tool for 3D Image Stacks
This application is a straightforward viewer and toolkit for 2D image stacks. It’s built for people who want to get results quickly, without needing a complex software package or steep learning curve.
It’s free to all, and capabilities continue to expand over time.
Plane Viewer
Browse and visualise individual image planes from a stack in a clean 2D workflow. Designed for simple navigation, quick inspection, and easy resizing and updates while you explore.
Highlights
-
View slices from PNG/JPG/TIF stacks
-
Resize and update views easily
-
Great for checking structure, contrast, and consistency
time.
Volume Viewer
View your image stack in 3D with practical controls aimed at exploration and communication rather than complexity. Useful for cropping, basic measurements, and exporting views.
Highlights
-
3D volume viewing with clear camera controls
-
Cropping tools to focus on a region of interest
-
Simple measurement tools
-
Colour/appearance controls
-
Export frames and create videos (where supported)
STL Wizard
STL Wizard – turn stacks into 3D-printable models
Generate an STL from a 2D image stack for 3D printing or sharing. Includes tools to improve the output by removing holes and cleaning up results.
Highlights
-
Create STL directly from image stacks
-
Hole removal / clean-up tools
-
Export printable models for demos, teaching, or prototyping
Who it’s for
Made for anyone working with image stacks, including microscopy, engineering inspection, research datasets, teaching materials, and general 3D visualisation from 2D slices.
