3D Printing and Imaging

Well, trial and error is why we are doing this, right? Quite mind blowing that this was a real need and was really made using only Photoshop and our 3D printer. As I mentioned previously, the drivers for the Makerbot...

To follow up on the last story, the TobackTablet Holder v1.0 was an epic fail: [youtube]http://youtu.be/evcrY7YPOSI[/youtube] The great success was the ease in which this was sketched out in Photoshop and then printed. Realizing the failure of the design in...

One of the most challenging aspects of 3D printing (beyond keeping the nozzle unclogged) has been the creation of models to print. Sure, there is value in printing other objects for reference, but creating your own objects and bringing them...

  Your mobile device can already see the world. Now, it can understand the world. Measure entire rooms all at once. The magic of 3D depth sensing begins with the ability to capture accurate dimensions of objects and environments. And...

https://vimeo.com/84259861 Jack showed me a cool product called Leap Motion the other day. I took a few minutes to play with it and can definitely see a wide range of applications. What is it? Basically it's a sensor system that...

Along with our 3D printers we received 3D scanner and have had a a few opportunities to play with it and learned quite a bit.  At first take our scans weren't really successful and I was actually a little bit...

We've had the better part of a week with the 3D printers.  Our printing efforts have been conservative.  Much time has been spent reading documentation and using our printing material smartly (our order of filament hasn't come in yet).  But...
