With the rise of 3D scanning technologies like LiDAR, photogrammetry, and depth cameras, point clouds have become increasingly popular in fields like architecture, gaming, engineering, and virtual ...

The study of human body shape using classical anthropometric techniques is often problematic due to several error sources. Instead, 3D models and representations ...

Rather than spending hundreds or even thousands of pounds on a 3D scanner, you might be interested to know that it is possible to use an Xbox Kinect to create an affordable alternative. This guide by ...

Before starting 3D printing, a 3D model is always necessary. And though these can be acquired in different ways, including by downloading a model from dedicated platforms or designing one using one of ...

The product we are reviewing today is the “AirGradient ONE” air quality monitor kit which is an updated version of the earlier AirGradient air quality monitor. The device is equipped with sensors from ...

Text to 3D is exactly what it sounds like: it’s a new experimental AI service that accepts a text prompt and automatically generates a 3D model. This is quite similar to the many text to image AI ...

The Coral Reef Ecosystem Internship will introduce interns to a variety of ecological and ecosystem level projects and concepts. The majority of our work asks questions revolving around how ecosystems ...

Electroencephalography (EEG) and functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) are two non-invasive techniques that can measure the neural/hemodynamic activity of the brain. EEG and fNIRS data are ...

Our evaluation of Capturing Reality’s new mobile 3D scanning app continues. This is part two of a two part series. Part one is here. I found there is a limit to the number of images you can take.

Giraffes are the tallest living animals, using their height to access food unavailable to their competitors. It is not clear how their specialized anatomy impacts their athletic ability. We made ...

The past decade has seen an exponential increase of innovative applications of 3D technology in the geosciences. Here, we present a case study from the Florida Museum of Natural History applied to the ...

This article focuses on new virtual advances to solve technical problems usually encountered by paleontologists when using X-ray computed tomography (XCT), such as (i) the limited scanning envelope (i ...
