Like many people, I have been preparing files for 3D printing using 3D modeling programs or downloading them from 3D model ...

There are a whole bunch of different ways to create 3D scans of objects these days. Researchers at the [UW Graphics Lab] have demonstrated how to use a small, cheap time-of-flight sensor to generate ...

Turn photos into 3D with Meta's SAM 3D, using SAM 2 masks and Gaussian splatting, so you can build assets quickly for ...

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 ...

Imagine performing a sweep around an object with your smartphone and getting a realistic, fully editable 3D model that you can view from any angle -- this is fast becoming reality, thanks to advances ...

This course will demonstrate how to use 3D printing software to create digital designs that can be turned into physical objects. It will also demonstrate how 3D scanners work to turn physical objects ...

Learn how to use the East Smithfield Public Library’s 3D Doodler on Wednesday Dec. 23, or Dec. 30 at 3 p.m. on each date.

A new technique enables makers to finely tune the color, shade, and texture of 3D-printed objects using only one material. The method is faster and uses less material than other approaches.

James has been writing about technology for years but has loved it since the early 90s. While his main areas of expertise are maker tools -- 3D printers, vinyl cutters, paper printers, and laser ...
