Kids are arriving on college campuses with fewer skills and diminished attention spans. But, rather than challenge students, ...

dragon-shaped asset where scales, horns, and whiskers follow the underlying geometry rather than appearing as a flat overlay.

Hear us out: This is a Christmas tree, but it’s also a step toward 3D-printed moon igloos. Researchers from the University of Amsterdam put a slightly modified 3D printer inside a vacuum chamber and ...

Journal Editorial Report: The week's best and worst from Kim Strassel, Jason Riley and Dan Henninger. Remember when the University of California kicked off a trend by eliminating the SAT test as an ...

Decades of research has viewed DNA as a sequence-based instruction manual; yet every cell in the body shares the same genes – so where is the language that writes the memory of cell identities?

Can you drill a hole in a cube that an identical cube could fall through? Prince Rupert of the Rhine first asked this question in the 17th century, and he soon found out the answer is yes. One can ...

We’ve often thought that 3D printers make excellent school projects. No matter what a student’s interests are: art, software, electronics, robotics, chemistry, or physics, there’s something for ...

Abstract: This paper proposes 3DGeoDet, a novel geometry-aware 3D object detection approach that effectively handles single- and multi-view RGB images in indoor and outdoor environments, showcasing ...

A collaboration between the University of Michigan and AFRL has resulted in 3D-printed metamaterials that can block vibrations using complex geometries. Inspired by nature and theoretical physics, ...

In the third century BCE, Apollonius of Perga asked how many circles one could draw that would touch three given circles at exactly one point each. It would take 1,800 years to prove the answer: eight ...

3D Systems beat on earnings but missed on sales last night. The 3D printing company also reported a surprise GAAP profit -- and promised positive cash flow next year. 3D Systems isn't consistently ...

Copilot 3D will turn your 2D images into 3D models. The tool is freely available to anyone, though you do need a Microsoft account. Microsoft suggests using an image with a single subject, even ...
