I think it is a request to output images of slices for sending to a DLP projector for curing photo polymers.

I just checked how that should work and I understand the principle. Quite interresting, but using a slicer for the output and visualize the result is not a good way.
It is wasted computing time to get worse results as possible.

All needed is the capability to slice a stl model for any z height and if needed adding some support structures. This would give better shaped results and is much faster then slicing stl to gcode. This way you could slice easily 1000 Layers per minute. That combined with a software controlling the hardware/visualization is all needed. Much easier then all the FDM stuff. Because the workflow is completely different, I wouldn't add it to my host. A new software specialized for curing photo polymers would be much better.

AFAIK this sort of "slicer-to bitmap" was used with the first host - when i remember correct, there was a routine, that exported slices as SVG's in a file, that were then calculated to paths for the FDM-head.per slice ...
