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.

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.

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 ...

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 ...

Scientists from The Hebrew University of Jerusalem have created wood ink that can be extruded into flat wooden structures, self-morphing into complex 3D shapes as they dry and shrink. The ...

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

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.

Use 3D shapes in a Word document to illustrate your text or design an entire file out of just shapes, such as a hierarchical organizational chart. Apply a variety of 3D effects to your Word shapes ...
