Why it matters: The creative industry needs a constant flux of content to keep fans happy, and that content needs to be created somehow. When it comes to 3D models, AI algorithms could provide a big ...

Researchers have developed a new algorithm for recovering the 3D refractive index distribution of biological samples that exhibit multiple types of light scattering. Researchers have developed a new ...

Most 3D scanners capture images using a technique known as structured light. A projector casts a series of light patterns on an object, while a camera captures images of the object. (Representational ...

Penn researchers have developed a universal algorithm that allows 2D materials to retain mechanical strength after conversion into 3D structures. The team’s work takes inspiration from kirigami, an ...

Abstract: Digital rights management of the 3D contents is a crucial open issue in the 3D video industry. A novel robust fingerprinting algorithm is proposed for protecting the copyright of the 3D ...

Engineers have created intelligent 3D printers that can quickly detect and correct errors, even in previously unseen designs, or unfamiliar materials like ketchup and mayonnaise, by learning from the ...

Example image of the 3D printer nozzle used by a machine learning algorithm to detect and correct errors in real time. Highlighted regions show aspects of the image that the system focuses on, ...

Disney Research has developed an algorithm which can generate 3D computer models from 2D images in great detail, sufficient, it says, to meet the needs of video game and film makers. The technology ...
