Is there an existing issue for this feature request?

I have searched the existing issues

It would be amazing if Orcaslicer had support for the Polyfoam infill type, the only slicer today that has Polyfoam support is IceSL.

I have not found a clear description how to implement it but I found two whitepapers (linked from IceSL webpage):

https://inria.hal.science/hal-01697103v2
https://inria.hal.science/hal-02524371v3

Which printers will be beneficial to this feature?

All

Describe the solution you'd like

I would love to be able to select and use the Polyfoam infill type in Orcaslicer.

Describe alternatives you've considered

No response

Additional context

Here’s a very interesting study regarding Polyfoam usecase:
