A new 3D printer algorithm claims to provide super-efficient 3D printing of Christmas trees with zero material waste, and also promises a way to produce accurate molds for casting chocolate Santas ...

This research builds on earlier algorithms that Sheffer and her colleagues developed that can turn sketches and drawings into 3D shapes. Together, these methods can be used to recreate objects around ...

AutoHair is a new algorithm developed by PhD student Menglei Chai from Zhejiang University’s State Key Lab of CAD&CG that can create a 3D model of a hairstyle from a portrait photo of someone.

A professor at MIT has completed an 18-year-long origami quest to develop a universal algorithm that could generate the paper-folding patterns required to produce any 3D structure with the ...

By using a large dataset to train a machine learning algorithm, researchers from Adobe and the Australian National University have created a technology that could do wonders for 3D model creation.

Scientists hope to create an internet database that illustrates atom-level material properties, and the 3D algorithm could be used for CT scans and other imaging tech.

The algorithm works on photos of faces, fictional or real. It was trained using a data set of photos of faces–and their corresponding 3D scans–that enable it to reconstruct a 3D model based ...

Basically, all the user needs to do is provide a 3D shape with a closed surface. It could be a polyhedron, something more round, like a torus, or less symmetrical, like a teardrop.
