Abstract

Impact of 3D printing technolgy in the manufactuaring industries is getting more powerful since the patents about 3D printer had been expired. As primitive 3D printing technology evolved into the fine printing technology from coarse technology and the printing materials are diversified, its scope of application range was extended from the biotechnology to the automobile industry and aerospace industry. In addtion, an ordinary person can print their own ideas by the low-cost 3D printer. Dissemination of accurate 3D scanners and 3D printers makes it easy for someone to steal other people’s designs and ideas. Plagiarism and theft on tangible media by a 3D printer raises the piracy issue on intellectual property. Therefore, copyright requirements will be investigated how to be defined for the protection of the work output by the 3D printer. The works should have a minimum of creativity to be protected by the copyright and should have investigate whether those works are based on original works. It is hard to interpret these criteria mechanically, but the determining similarity between original works and printed works can be supported technically. In this study, we want to be able to remove the impediments to the advance of the activation of the 3D printer industry by deriving the requirements for copyright protection of 3D printed works.
