You didn’t buy a 3D printer just to print everyone else’s models.

Plenty of our childhoods had at least one math teacher who made the (ultimately erroneous) claim that we needed to learn to do math because we wouldn’t always have a calculator in our pockets. While ...

Computer-aided design software costs vary dramatically across the market. Professional CAD software ranges from $119 annually for basic tools to over $5,000 yearly for enterprise solutions. The true ...

Sometimes the simplest objects need some overthinking. This is exactly what [Chris Borge] realized when using his 3D scanner and finding that the included rotation table left quite a bit to be desired ...

What if a small sensor could understand space in three dimensions? A maker recently showed how a Time-of-Flight (ToF) sensor can be turned into a basic 3D scanner. The sensor sends out infrared light ...

The aim of this series is to provide developers with the foundational knowledge needed to have full control over game development, starting from low-level systems (such as the Graphics Engine, Input ...

When you create attachable objects using BOSL2 you have some options options for controling how that object is positioned relative to the origin and the coordinate axes. The basic object positioning ...

Machine Design distills the cutting-edge landscape of advanced manufacturing through the eyes of multidisciplinary engineers, covering technical insights on the foundational and emerging principles of ...

Summary <p>The execution time of a program depends on several factors: program data, quality of the code generated by the compiler, and computational complexity. This chapter begins by examining the ...
