Adding textures is a great way to experiment with giving 3D prints a different look, and [PandaN] shows off a method of adding a wood grain effect in a way that’s easy to play around with.

3D models intended for resin printing aren’t ... Rafts and a forest of thin tree-like supports are common in resin printing. In the tabletop gaming scene, many models come pre-supported for ...

Using an input image, the Tree-D Fusion creates a 3D tree model that can be used to simulate various stages of development. WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Trees compete for space as they grow.

Tree-D Fusion, developed by MIT, Google, and Purdue researchers, uses AI to create 3D models of urban trees, predicting growth under climate scenarios. These models aid city planning by anticipating ...

The AI tree models’ weakness is that they lack training data that describes real-world 3D tree geometry. “In our methods, we needed to generate the data. So our AI models are not simulating nature.
