What is PhotoVCarve?

PhotoVCarve swiftly converts images and photographs into accurate toolpaths that are suitable for almost all CNC routing and engraving machines. This software stands out for its ability to create exquisite 3D lithophanes from images, which can be treasured as gifts, keepsakes, or lasting memories. By generating grooves of different widths and depths, it effectively captures the fine details of the original photograph. The final quality of the lithophane hinges on a pronounced contrast between the material's surface and the machined features. In the darker areas of an image, PhotoVCarve produces broader grooves, while the lighter areas are represented with slimmer ones. The software intelligently calculates toolpaths based on the chosen cutter, ensuring optimal outcomes for each project. Lithophanes have a flat appearance under normal lighting, but when backlit, they unveil stunning 3D visuals that are rich in detail and depth, making them truly mesmerizing. This fusion of technology and artistic expression positions PhotoVCarve as an essential resource for artists and creators eager to transform their photographs into remarkable pieces of art. Consequently, it empowers users to explore new creative avenues and elevate their craft to the next level.
