Probably the actual "printer" a piece of "3D printer" isn't exactly the correct words, because creation offers so very long already been considered to be the two-dimensional means of using printer for you to document. The true trouble phrase, just like the three dimensional creation procedure without help, appears to remain right here for you to.

three dimensional inkjet printers, designed to utilize many systems for making real pieces through electric powered documents, are increasingly being utilized as a result of person creators and also little plus big brands, plus they are really revolutionizing exactly how this works to achieve pregnant relating to, style plus help to help make points.

Just around all 3d publishing starts acquiring a CAD pattern, generally managed within STL structure plus delivered with the actual ink jet printer, which can be basically that production apparatus. Along with a large number of three dimensional creations, levels or simply cross-sections were created 1 and another, generally utilizing some form of plastic components, polymer bonded, steel or simply additional items.

Exactly how some of these levels were created plus fused differs from the others broadly. This specific procedures considering picky laser sintering (SLS) plus fused lodging modeling (FDM) break up supplies to deliver the exact levels.

One other technique utilizes a very good ink plane publishing routine which advances the talc coating relating to plastic material or simply resin, which can be after which will protected acquiring a joining stock broker, which can be repetitive cellular lining through cellular lining before item can be total.

An extra procedure, electric powered gentle processing (DLP), reveals h2o polymer bonded materials for you to gentle which in turn hardens it coating because of coating.

3d publishing operations arrive less than an over-all brand "additive formation, inch wherein materials can be additional to produce a form, as a substitute for "subtractive formation, inch that requires carving separate materials. From the ingredient charm, three dimensional publishing is proven to produce something belonging to the easy cellular telephone situation to your one-piece item and inner ducts, pipes or simply obstacles.

"3D creation has resulted in upward an important comprehension relating to what is without a doubt feasible and ingredient formation, inch suggested Scott McGowan, overseer relating to advertising Achieve Even more Clients and Reside Speak out -- Free of cost Whitepaper with the three dimensional creation organization, Tough Ideas.

"The independence relating to style recognized whenever using ingredient production meant for end-use pieces starts trending up style possible choices unavailable and conventional formation techniques, inch the affected individual stated. "It's likewise permitted developers plus technical engineers for you to accept a prototyping procedure even more completely previously -- presenting them with the opportunity to undergo even more style iterations plus create a greater item.

Since that technologies supplies enhanced, a pace, capability of access, plus price relating to three dimensional creations possess removed significantly, in addition to being rapidly getting system of the daily everyday life.

"The title belonging to the online game can be producing a equipment stronger etc obtainable, inch stated May likely Titlow, vice leader relating to item administration meant for UNCES Small business, that offers 3d ink plane printers which in turn variety after only cost because of US$14, nine hundred for you to $59, 9 decades hundred.

"The objective may be to help to help make three dimensional creations because quick in addition to being simple considering publishing on paper, inch the affected individual informed TechNewsWorld.
3d Printing Sites

Having an important utilized 3d Sizing ink jet printer the affected individual purchased for approximately $20, 000 at a nearby hold, Bradley Rigdon initiated their home-based 3d publishing small business, Printing for you to three dimensional, after only 2007. Ever since then, he's manufactured the awakening company generating 3d items meant for customers near the nation, making personalized game play items, components meant for digital reality glasses, prototypes meant for Lot in money 500 organizations, and a few additional pieces.

"It is able to combine exactly therapies discovered after only robotics, apparatus, CAD plus consumer electronics market courses, within. Stated Rigdon, who was simply operating at a device store leading up to impressive away to be a homegrown creator. "I not ever truly desired to promote anyone actually, which has been something I can perform.

It will not be simply modest, home-based creation companies helping a three dimensional creation marketplace. Tough Ideas, just like, is a real customized formation organization up and running within 1991 which in turn produces as a result of prototypes for you to items alone because in its people. The enterprise functions in lots of sectors, which includes medication, professional areas, plus unique results meant for movies.

"I've experienced unfamiliar skeletons increasing belonging to the goo lower furthermore there, inch McGowan enlightened TechNewsWorld.

A significant an important corporation's company can be making prototypes that happens to be the phase during the style system, permitting developers to discover, fine-tune, plus enhance the 3d design  occasionally struggling with several prototypes leading up to coming with the ultimate pattern.

"We implement style technicians to create what to visit away to push, inch mentioned McGowan.”Before buying cash, individuals choose to ensure they have perhaps created the ideal point.

Additional generating stores, just like Shapeways, provide their own individual providers straight using the web in arrangement to individuals, who are going to submit 3d electronic documents or have all of those imprinted in lots of press, just like polymers, metal, cup, iron, or possibly even ceramics. Developers may moreover market their own individual print-on-demand items considering the website.

"We present an extremely wide-ranging neighborhood relating to customers, through learners associated through style, architectural plus pc shots, in arrangement to enthusiasts just like design engines, twisty obscure ideas plus chop collectors, to jewelers, designers plus expert developers for case study designers, commercial plus graphic animators, inch Duann Scott, the marketing and sales communications consultant meant for Shapeways, enlightened TechNewsWorld.

"We have got individuals with very little style or simply producing come upon utilizing that co-creators for you to personalize up-to-date styles for making significant modified items, mentioned Scott.
Daring  " new world " during the Producing

Within not-so-distant long run, three dimensional inkjet printers may just be because widespread within those people houses because laser ink plane printers are instead -- opening lots of options meant for fixing, helping to make, creating, replacing, discussing plus delivering pieces.

"Within below many quite a few years, we might observe inkjet printers in just a few families, stated Rigdon. "When an item is definitely damaged, individuals can buy style documents meant for alternative components plus produce just about all inside your house.

Simply, the exact outlines somewhere between believed plus actuality, style plus delivery, electronic document plus item, can be blurring.

Turn your iOS device into a 3D scanner!

4/21/2011

By now you have probably heard of 3D printers, if not I would have to ask the question... "Have you been living under a rock?"
For those who dont know I will go briefly into 3D printers. When you toss around the word "3D" most people think images that appear to be jumping out of the page. But what 3D means is 3 Dimensions.
Length and width give us a 2D design. Add in depth and you have your 3rd dimension.
So what does a 3D printer do? Easy, it physically makes what ever you gave it the dimensions to make.
If you scan in a flute (see video here), a 3D printer will print out a exact copy of the flute.

Now that we have the basics of what a 3D printer does, how do we scan in the item that we want to print? Well if you have a iOS supported device such as an iPhone, iPad 2, or any of the latest generation of iPod touch devices the answer is simple. Download the app! For about $0.99 your device can replace 3D scanners that cost upwards of thousands of dollars.
Granted that the final product will only be a crude interpretation of  the original, but if you are not looking to make a fully function turbine engine (and yes they are 3D printing engines) and only looking to have a little fun with your friends or make some stand out art, then this is a must have.

The app is called Trimensional. It was developed by a a research scientist (Grant Schindler)  at Georgia Tech. The app will allow the device's screen to use light and capture the image from four different directions to create a 3 dimensional image as its end product.  Schindler now offers an upgrade (a few dollars more) that will allow you to take the 3D image/data that you just created and send it over to a CAD program or 3D application to be printed out on a 3D printer.

There is no denying that 3D is coming on strong and even more so is the 3D printer. This technology will be around for a long time to come. Expect to see more advancements in this area to continue and have profound improvements on your lives.

Rumor- Toshiba may be set to release glasses free 3D monitors

4/7/2011

0 Comments

 
In a recent release from PhysOrg.com (read full release here), on the heals of the Nintendo 3DS release, rumors are being generated from Taiwan that Toshiba is currently working on a line of 3D laptops that will also feature a glasses free monitor similar to that of the Nintendo 3DS.

Glasses free 3D is a very real and very achievable technology and Nintendo demonstrated this with the release of its 3DS gaming system on March 27, 2011.
These rumors may be founded in a basis of some fact. In the late part of 2010, Toshiba has launched a line of 3D HDTVs. There is no denying that Toshiba is already in the 3D world when it comes to technologies.

Since nearly ever technology guru out there now concedes that 3D "IS" the way of the future and no longer "MAY BE" the way of the future, it only makes sense that the big names will advance the technology further into glasses free monitors. Already big names such as Acer, Asustek, HP, Dell, and Lonovo have launched 3D laptops but no one has yet to launch a glasses free model.

One of the biggest draw backs to 3D is the lack of universal viewing technology. One set of glasses may not work on another kind of 3D technology. Glasses free monitor and TVs will solves that problem and will go a long, long way to getting 3D technology into every household.

New app makes 3D models from your cellphone pics

3/24/2011

0 Comments

 
Microsoft's new application allows you to create a 3D model from the pics you take with your cellphone. Normally a 3D model is a very intensive and requires an expert touch. Now the average person can create a simple 3D model with just a few snaps of the camera (upwards of about 40).

Thanks to Microsoft's Interactive Visual Media Group, this application will soon be out for everyone to use. If you want to generate a 3D model of your car. Simply navigate around the subject (in this case your car) and take as many images from as many different angles as possible. The images will be sent to a server (a cloud server) to be processed. The end result will be compiled with an amped up version of PhotoSynth and the final product will be a beautiful 3D model that can be navigated around with surprising ease and flow.

Eric Stollnitz (a Microsoft researcher on the project) stated "We want everybody with a cell phone or regular digital camera to be able to capture 3-D objects"
The Microsoft researchers have also developed a web browser interface that will allow the user to share the 3D models online. This will also work with conventional camera images but the photos will have to be uploaded on a computer in order to be processed.

We are now putting the power to create 3D models into the hands of the average every day person. This is a great step forward for 3D in general. Move over photoshop and make room for 3D.

Turn drab 2D images into 3D with 3D Photo Works

3/17/2011

0 Comments

 
3DPhotoWorks is releasing a style of printing that is the first of its kind in 3D photographic printing.

3D photographic printing is a combination of traditional photographs (the kind that we all know). This captures the true colors, outlines, and features of the photo. The other part is where the magic happens. This part is more along the lines of being a artist relief of the image. It sculpts out the detail of the image and raises it from the back ground to meet the viewers eye. This adds depth and details that only 3D can bring to an image.

Dominick Insana (VP of national sales for 3DPhotoWorks) stated “The technology we have developed goes well beyond the traditional stereoscopic imaging consumers are familiar with, making it unlike any other print product on the market. For industries where branding or messaging can get lost in a sea of competitors, our unique images cause double-takes and give businesses that extra critical moment to grab consumer attention.”

Through multiple steps in a proprietary technology, 3DPhotoWorks will take any conventional 2D image and produce a 3D photographic image adding depth but keeping in image in tact.
The 2D image is converted to 3D by one of 3D PhotoWorks specialists. With the use of specialized software a 3D sculpted relief is formed of the image with depths up to 1.75 inches. The 2D image is then layered/printed on the relief resulting in an image that not only looks great (exact copy of the original 2D image) but also now has the added beauty of depth, really bringing the photos to life.

This product will surly have a large market as businesses look for new an innovative ways to attract customers to their products. With out a doubt 3D is coming on strong and will only get bigger as time continues and the technology catches up with the demand. This is a great way to STAND OUT (so to speak) from other flat 2D advertising.


As a side note, I just want to state that you should not confuse this with 3D printing. This is a still a flat panel image with raised aspects to create depth and detail. 3D printing is a form of additive manufacturing technology where a three dimensional object is created by successive layers of material. The end result of 3D printing is an exact replica of the item that you canned in. If you scanned in a flute, you will get out a exact working copy of the flute.

Standardized 3D Glasses on the way.

3/10/2011

0 Comments

 
A major complaint about 3D is the lack of transition and lack of compatibility within the 3D world (namely 3D glasses). To ease the problems that arise between the different types of 3D, the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) is in the process of making a new standard in 3D.

With every new technology advancement there comes a time where the divergence of methods for that technology is crucial to make a new standard across the board. 3D has reached that point.

Brian Markwalter (CEA's research and standards VP) states "The expanding presence of 3DTV in the home makes the need for interoperable 3D glasses more urgent than ever,"  He goes on to say "Industry participation will help meet consumer demand and expectations regarding 3D interoperability in the home."

Having a universal standard in the 3D industry will go a long, long way to help 3D as a whole become the widely accepted technology and common place in nearly every home. This standard will help consolidate 3D and really get it off the launching pad in a big way.
So if you had your doubts about the 3D market, wait a little while longer until the 3D world finishes its shakedown of its technologies and the new standard is borne.

A better look at 4 million babies with 3D Ultrasound

3/1/2011

0 Comments

 
On average there are about 4 million babies born each year in the United States. The use of 3D/4D ultrasounds may do more then just give mom and dad to be a better look at their expected loved one. It may be able to provide doctors with some much needed insight into the health of the baby before he or she is born.

In as early as 14 weeks, Doctors can now see a much clearer and complete assessment of the baby's heart while in utero.
"Congenital heart defects are the most common of all birth defects, and they are a major cause of infant death." according to Greggory R. DeVore, M.D., director of the Fetal Diagnostic Centers in Pasadena, Calif.

3D/4D ultrasound can greatly increase the detect heart defects before birth. This technology allows clinicians who do not specialize in heart defects to gain a much more detailed assessment of the heart condition of the unborn child. This helps improve the overall detection rate of heart defects of babies still in utero.

So while 2D ultrasounds are routinely used to check on fetal development and to help diagnosis problems with a woman’s pregnancy. There may be a huge benefit in splurging for the 3D ultrasound. And if nothing else, you and your loved one can debate over whose nose your baby has.
