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 have developed a technique that programs 2D materials to transform into complex 3D shapes. University of Texas at Arlington researchers have developed a technique that programs 2D ...

3D printing of complex objects typically takes a long time due to the printing process necessarily laying down a large number of 2D layers to build up the object. The process usually wastes a lot of ...

We’ve often thought that 3D printers make excellent school projects. No matter what a student’s interests are: art, software, ...

Two-dimensional (2D) shapes are completely flat. They cannot be picked up. 2D shapes can be found printed in a book or you can draw them on a piece of paper. 2D shapes have sides and corners (also ...
