Abstract

Ban Dao Ni ceramic carving represents a distinctive form of traditional low-relief artistry in China, defined by shallow knife incisions that create dynamic surface variations. As emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and 3D printing evolve, they present novel tools for enhancing both the creative and technical aspects of this heritage craft. This study explores how AI algorithms can be applied to generate and reinterpret traditional motifs, while 3D printing technologies are employed to transform digital patterns into ceramic-compatible reliefs. By integrating these methods, a hybrid creative model is proposed that maintains the expressive authenticity of hand-carving while improving design precision, efficiency, and preservation. The paper concludes that AI and 3D printing offer practical solutions for revitalizing traditional ceramic arts in the digital age.
