NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory team has released several 3D models of celestial onbjects that you can print. Credit: ...

Let's talk about layers. Traditional 3D printing involves a machine stacking layers of material to create a 3D object. This takes time and leaves ripples showing where those layers were laid down.

An interesting research project out of MIT shows that it’s possible to embed machine-readable labels into 3D printed objects using nothing more than an FDM printer and filament that is transp… ...

Facebook wants to let you create virtual objects in its Oculus Medium sculpting platform or Facebook Spaces VR hangouts and then share them with friends who don't have a VR headset. Today at ...

Notably, researcher Johnny Lee made an early name for himself by demonstrating how hacked Nintendo Wii remotes could work with a television to make any 2D TV appear 3D to a viewer.

We continue our DIY-IT discovery series on 3D printing by exploring how to download and print 3D objects from the Internet. If you can download a file, and you have a little patience, you can do this.

Point-E doesn’t create 3D objects in the traditional sense. Rather, it generates point clouds, or discrete sets of data points in space that represent a 3D shape — hence the cheeky abbreviation.

It sounds like a scene from Ant-Man, but this is very much real life: scientists at MIT have devised a super shrinking system that can produce 3D nanoscale versions of much larger, custom-made ...
