Virtual reality (VR) has been built up for a couple of years now, yet despite the fact that it’s been as of late eclipsed by augmented reality (AR) and artificial intelligence (AI), it seems hype surrounding VR is set to proceed. Numerous leading creatives mentioned the impacts of VR in the imaginative space. Let’s look… Continue Reading 6 Tools That Allows You To Create 3D Models In VR

Many makers now have at their disposal an artificial intelligence tool that automates the design process for 3D-printable parts without the requirement for 3D modeling. That means cutting out the often painstaking steps required to create functional parts, and could help make designing and engineering more consistent and proficient. Created by DM Labs, the research… Continue Reading A.I. program builds CAD models

For decades, astrologists have tried to figure out different ways to conserve the history of our planet. The Zamani Project, based in South Africa at the University of Cape Town (UCT), has set out to create 3D models using data to capture historical sites in Africa. Check our Architecture 3D models categorie here. Their main… Continue Reading The Zamani Project Shows African Historical Sites With 3D Modeling

Cloth modeling is a form of 3D modeling that allows computer graphics programs to create the appearance of clothing on 3D models, or fabrics within the programs. It is a crucial part in creating organic items such as clothing for 3D models created to appear human, or items within the home, or within the interior… Continue Reading What Is Cloth Modeling?

A texture map is used to create a unique surface upon the exterior of a 3D models. It could be compared to wrapping a box, or using other forms of paper, and material to completely cover the exterior of that box. Texture mapping allows not colors, but textures to be applied to the surface of… Continue Reading What Are Texture Maps?

A 3D model is a representation of any three-dimensional object using computer graphics software. A 3D Model can be displayed virtually as a 2D image through a process called 3D rendering or used in a 3D computer simulation, animation, or visualization. Creating a 3D model is often a time consuming and an expensive process. Therefore,… Continue Reading What Are 3D Models?

“A 3D digital image is worth a million words” In today’s world, inventors need to be able to communicate their ideas in highly realistic digital formats to gain maximum exposure. They need to quickly and easily describe the benefits of their ideas to be able to license or commercialize it. Flat Pyramid provides a competitive… Continue Reading Why Use 3D Images?

The field of computer graphics has developed alongside the development of the digital computer. In 1959, MIT’s Lincoln Labs TX-2 computer gave birth to the field of interactive computer graphics. By the mid 1960’s major corporations, such as TRW, Lockheed, General Electric and Sperry Rand, had already started research and development in computer graphics. IBM’s… Continue Reading History Of Computer Graphics

Two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) computer graphics are all around us and enable us to be able to visualize and manipulate data everyday. What is the difference between 2D and 3D computer graphics, such as 3D Models? Let’s explore the difference and similarities between them. 2D Computer Graphics 2D computer graphics are digital images that… Continue Reading 2D And 3D Computer Graphics

3D Modeling is the creation, manipulation, and storage of geometric objects to represent objects that are all around us or virtual objects. The process of 3d modeling begins with the use of specialized 3d modeling software. The 3D artist develops a mathematical, wireframe representation of the object using specialized software. The final product is called… Continue Reading 3D Modeling

Previously, whenever a company required 3D models they would have to hire a 3D modeler or 3D company to create it for them. This often resulted in a time intensive and expensive process. Most of the items created ironically, already existed in the hard drives of some 3d modeler somewhere in the world. With the current… Continue Reading Leveraging 3D Models On A Website

Polygon models which have surfaces that appear curves are actually created with tiny series of lines. These lines can be smoothed in the rendering process making the lines appear smoothed, and authentic. Many created 3D models are created from these series of tiny lines, but have the appearance of curved surfaces such as furniture, or… Continue Reading How To Smooth The Edges Of A Polygon Model

3D modeling is the process of mathematical representation of any three-dimensional object. The main objective of 3D modeling is creating a visual image of the object. The model is usually based on real life objects (for example, cars, buildings, or humans), but it can also be fully abstract — fractals, graphics and so on. 3D… Continue Reading Four Methods of 3D Modeling

NURB modeling or, non uniform rational b-spline modeling creates 3d models with varying surface representations. This type of modeling allows for the curves that we see in sleek vehicle models and architecturally curved buildings.   Specific aspects of a NURB model include; knot vector, control points and the order of these items. Control points are… Continue Reading Creating 3D Models With NURB Modeling

There are three common shapes created with the use of polygonal 3D modeling; triangles, quads, and elements. Triangles are formed when three sided polygons are uses, quads are formed with four sided polygons are used, and an element is created by a group of polygons connected together at a shared point. Polygon modeling refers to… Continue Reading Types Of 3D Modeling: Polygonal Modeling
