    Abstract: A first camera and a second camera oriented at different angles and spaced a separation distance to determine surface height measurements. The cameras are focused at a lens focal length to a surface area to record a captured image pair of x-y pixels having common features of the surface area. Correlation of the captured image pair is performed to measure a set of disparity distances between the common features in the captured image pair using a fiducial to assist. The set of disparity distances is converted to a set of z-height measurements with a resolution incorporating the separation distance, the lens focal length, the set of disparity distances, and a calibration error factor.

    Abstract: In an example of a method for three-dimensional printing, a first amount of a binding agent is selectively applied, based on a 3D object model, to individual build material layers of a particulate build material including metal particles to forming an intermediate structure. The binding agent and/or a void-formation agent is selectively applied, based on the 3D object model, to at least one interior layer of the individual build material layers so that a total amount of the binding agent, the void-formation agent, or both the binding agent and the void-formation agent in the at least one of the individual build material layers is greater than the first amount. This patterns an area that is to contain voids. The intermediate structure is heated to form a 3D structure including a void-containing breakable connection.
