The proposed technique employs two novel approaches: dual 3D edge extraction and opacity–color gradation, to enhance the clarity of 3D scanned objects. Recent advances in three-dimensional (3D) ...

While traditional 3D printers work by depositing layers of material, tomographic volumetric additive manufacturing (TVAM) involves shining laser light at a rotating vial of resin until it hardens ...

In this article, we'll explore how this innovative method, which employs multiple acoustic holograms, works and examine its potential applications and limitations. What are Acoustic Holograms, and How ...

When 3D printing was invented more than 40 years ago, it was a linear process, and its workflow remains essentially unchanged. Typically, users decide on a geometry to print, without precise knowledge ...

Build and animate complex 3D objects and accurately-engineered models with 3DCrafter. Amabilis Software’s 3DCrafter (freeware) is a modeling and animation tool that promises drag-and-drop control. Don ...

Forget your regular ol’ 3D printer. Why not try using sound waves to form a 3D object? That’s exactly what researchers in Germany set out to do, making use of “acoustic holograms” to form distinct 3D ...

A 3D printer that uses lasers to build up an object in any order, rather than layer by layer, could produce more advanced designs than is currently possible. Existing 3D printers work by depositing ...

What if the physical world could be captured with such precision that it became indistinguishable from its digital counterpart? This is the bold ambition driving the collaboration between Microsoft ...
