How can i export model to cad or STL files?

Hello everyone, I used Ransac to detect point clouds and got a sphere model in matlab, models were stored in spheremodel which could be seen in workspace. I've spent lots of time trying to export it to the format such as STL or CAD, but can't find the right solutions, could anyone give me some hints? Thx a lot.

Since R2018b, MATLAB has built-in STL tools. You don't need to download anything.

stlread

stlwrite

For older versions needing third-party tools in the current day, I'd recommend these tools. This explains why. As to what would have been best in spring 2018, that last link should also explain the answer.
