Abstract
An example three-dimensional (3D) printer may include a camera to capture a low-resolution thermal image of a build material bed. The 3D printer may include an interpolation engine to generate an interpolated thermal image based on the low-resolution thermal image. The 3D printer may also include a correction engine to enhance fine details of the interpolated thermal image without distorting thermal values from portions of the interpolated thermal image without fine details to produce an enhanced thermal image.
