In a leap forward for materials science, a multi-institutional team of researchers has developed a pioneering method of 3D printing cholesteric liquid crystal elastomers (CLCEs), enabling complex, ...

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.

(Nanowerk Spotlight) From the vivid blues and greens of peacock feathers to the shimmering reds of ruby crystals, structural color in nature provides some of the most dazzling displays that delight ...

Researchers have developed a 'coloring-by-shrinking' method to print arbitrary 3D microscopic objects exhibiting structural colors. The design consisted of woodpile photonic crystals with varying ...

Meshy integrates its Image-to-3D tool into Bambu Lab's MakerWorld MakerLab, while also launching Multi-Color Printing on meshy.ai - together delivering the most seamless AI-to-print workflow on the ...

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 ...

Have your child watch The Golden Pyramid Problem. Ask her to pay special attention to the shapes she sees in the episodes. Explain to your child that the shapes in her paper Peg doll are flat, but ...
