An AI method enables the generation of sharp, high-quality 3D shapes that are closer to the quality of the best 2D image models. Previous approaches typically generated blurry or cartoonish 3D shapes.

3D shapes can be made from 2D shapes called nets. Watch the video to learn how 3D shapes, such as a cube, can be created from nets, an arrangement of 2D shapes. Let's talk about nets. More ...

A 3D shape with all straight edges and flat faces is a polyhedron. Other 3D shapes with least one curved surface are not polyhedra. A 3D shape with regular polygonal faces, meeting at equal angles, is ...

The next breakthrough to take the AI world by storm might be 3D model generators. This week, OpenAI open sourced Point-E, a machine learning system that creates a 3D object given a text prompt.

Laser powder bed fusion, a 3D-printing technique, offers potential in the manufacturing industry, particularly when fabricating nickel-titanium shape memory alloys with complex geometries. Although ...

The growing popularity of 3D printers, such as the Printbot or MakerBot's Thing-o-Matic, testify to the fact that additive manufacturing is slowly entering the mainstream. The devices are now small ...
