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 ...

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.

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
