We’ve seen a few different ways to add textures to 3D prints, including using Blender to modify model surfaces. Textures can enhance the look of a model, and are also a good way to hide layer lines.

Researchers have uncovered how primate brains transform flat, 2D visual inputs into rich, 3D mental representations of ...

Researchers leverage shadows to model 3D scenes, including objects blocked from view. ScienceDaily . Retrieved June 2, 2025 from www.sciencedaily.com / releases / 2024 / 06 / 240618153003.htm ...

This so-called Large Photogrammetry Model is able to reconstruct 3D objects and scenes from just a few 2D photos, but with a big difference from current pipelines. Here’s why this is a big deal ...

StabilityAI, makers of the Stable Diffusion family of AI image models has unveiled a new image-to-3D tool called TripoSR that can quickly turn a picture into an object. There are a growing number ...

We’ve seen ChatGPT create objects in OpenSCAD, also thanks to leveraging a text-based method of defining 3D objects. Maybe the results are not going to wow any crowds right now, but by this time ...

Roblox is launching and open-sourcing Cube 3D, the first version of its foundational AI model for generating 3D objects. The model is trained on 3D objects. Eventually, it will be multimodal.

If you can 3D-scan it, you can 3D-print it – and Matter and Form has announced a super-versatile new way to do so. The Three system creates photorealistic, high-detail, full-color 3D scans of ...

It’s by no means the first camera to create 3D models — the cameras on the consumer-level Xbox Kinect have a similar function — but it will be the first one to have a range beyond a few feet.

Roblox is launching and open-sourcing Cube 3D, the first version of its foundational AI model for generating 3D objects. “With Cube, we intend to make 3D creation more efficient,” Roblox says ...
