Make STL of 3D array (Optimal for 3d printing)

make_STL_of_Array Convert a voxelized object contained within a 3D logical array into an STL surface mesh, It's optimal for 3D printing.

make_STL_of_Array Convert a voxelized object contained within a 3D logical array into an STL surface mesh, It's optimal for 3D printing because of the number of faces in final STL is as low as possible.

EXAMPLE:
make_STL_of_Array(FileName,Data,scaleX,scaleY,scaleZ)
..or..
[Vertices, Triangle, Quads] = make_STL_of_Array(FileName,Data,scaleX,scaleY,scaleZ)

INPUTS

FileName - string - Filename of the STL file.

Data - 3D logical array - Voxelised data
1 => Inside the object
0 => Outside the object
(FOR PRINTING WITH TWO MATERIALS YOU SHOULD INVERSE
Data (Data = ~Data) AND RUN CODE AGAIN TO HAVE THE SECOND TYPE)

scaleX - A number which means the X size of every
voxel in mm
scaleY - A number which means the Y size of every
voxel in mm
scaleZ - A number which means the Z size of every
voxel in mm

OUTPUTS

vertices - Nx3 array - A list of the x,y,z coordinates of
each vertex in the mesh.

Triangle - Nx3 array - A list of the vertices used in
each Triangle of the mesh, identified using the row
the number in the array vertices.

Quads - Nx4 array - A list of the vertices used in
each Quads of the mesh, identified using the row
the number in the array vertices.
