This requirement is for 3-dimensional implant planning system compatible with the Stratasys Objet 260 3D Dental Printer.

STL is a file format native to the STL computer-aided design (CAD) software created by 3-dimensional systems. STL has several after-the-fact backronyms, such as "standard triangle language" and "standard tessellation language" file format used for rapid prototyping, 3-dimensional printing, and computer-aided manufacturing. STL files describe only the surface geometry of a 3-dimensional object without any representation of color, texture or other CAD model attributes. The STL format specifies both American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII) and binary representations. Computers can only understand numbers, so an ASCII code is the numerical representation of a character such as an "a" or "@" or an action of some sort. ASCII is a character-encoding standard for electronic communication and represents text in computers, telecommunications equipment and other devices. ASCII represents 128 English characters as numbers, with each letter assigned a number from zero to 127. For example, the ASCII code for uppercase "M" is 77.
