People often use their hands when describing an object, while pens are great tools for describing objects in detail. Taking this idea, a KAIST team introduced a new 3D sketching workflow, combining ...

A new computational approach, built on data-driven techniques, is making it possible to turn simple 2D sketch into a realistic 3D shape, with little or no user input necessary. A new computational ...

3D printing has segued from the niche lab to very nearly the mass market, and new startup CreoPop is hoping to tip it over the edge with its new 3D Pen. Built around an intriguing range of unusual ...

AI-assisted 3D generation: Platforms such as Tripo AI convert 2D images into geometric models, providing structured, spatial digital objects made of polygons and surfaces that can be explored and ...

The Apple Pencil may one day be able to sketch virtual objects, as hinted in an Apple patent filing for a “method and device for sketch-based placement of virtual objects.” Apple notes that, in some ...

Platforms like Figma have changed the game when it comes to how creatives and other stakeholders in the production and product team conceive and iterate around two-dimensional designs. Now, a company ...

Thanks to the influx of mobile tablets like the iPad, 2D sketch tools and industrial design capabilities are suddenly hot. So hot that Dassault Systemes just added a new 3D sketch tool to its CAD and ...

Every fancied having a go on a giant Etch-a-Sketch? Then check out Sketch 3D, which was created by O2 Creative Solutions. It was made using a Pico-Itx single board computer and is based around an ...
