Engineers have developed a high-throughput, multimaterial 3D inkjet printer that uses computer vision to rapidly and automatically control the amount of material being deposited during the printing ...

Ordinarily, if you want to change the shape in which an object is 3D-printed, you have to alter the computer model that tells the printer what to do. A new and simpler technique, however, allows the ...

Designers, makers, and others often use 3D printing to rapidly prototype a range of functional objects, from movie props to ...

By quickly generating aesthetically accurate previews of fabricated objects, the VisiPrint system could make prototyping ...

Researchers at Science Tokyo have developed a neural inverse rendering method that accurately reconstructs the three-dimensional (3D) shapes of moving objects using only three standard projection ...

Augmented reality has the potential to revolutionize education, driving, shopping, medicine, and many other fields. Apple’s Reality Converter gives developers a free tool to convert, view, and ...

Nvidia Corp. today showcased the impressive advances it has made in the area of “inverse rendering,” which is a technique that uses artificial intelligence to reconstruct a series of still photos into ...

A new method significantly advances 3D imaging of reflective surfaces. The approach integrates techniques known from high-precision optical 3D metrology and computer vision, and could benefit ...

3D computer graphics, sometimes called CGI, 3DCG or three-dimensional computer graphics (in contrast to 2D computer graphics), are graphics that use a three-dimensional representation of geometric ...

It’s been a while since 3D printers became available and started allowing people to create 3D objects in the real world right from their own home. If you’re interested in getting a rundown of what 3D ...
