Find out how tessellation is when shapes fit together in a pattern with no gaps or overlaps. Shapes with 4 sides Explore four-sided shapes looking at straight lines, curved lines and 2D shapes.

Watch the video to learn how 3D shapes, such as a cube, can be created from nets, an arrangement of 2D shapes. Let's talk about nets. More specifically, mathematical nets. A net in maths is a flat ...

An AI method enables the generation of sharp, high-quality 3D shapes that are closer to the quality of the best 2D image models. Previous approaches typically generated blurry or cartoonish 3D shapes.

The new technique enables the generation of sharper, more lifelike 3D shapes — like these robotic bees — without the need to retrain or finetune a generative AI model. CAMBRIDGE, MA ...

In a leap forward for genetic and biomedical research, two scientists at the University of Missouri have developed a powerful ...

Combining 3D printing’s unlimited shape and material customization with powerful computing will lead to designs that no human could possibly have imagined. In the future, the best designers will ...

So what if you could buy your pasta of choice in a simple, compact 2D form and then watch it take on the desired final 3D shape as it cooks, thereby doubling the fun factor? Scientists at Carnegie ...

Researchers have created microscale robots less than 1 millimeter in size that are printed as a 2D hexagonal 'metasheet' but, with a jolt of electricity, morph into preprogrammed 3D shapes and crawl.
