Everyday things that have the shape of a pyramid include rooftops, buildings and paperweights. Triangular prisms have 5 flat faces. 2 are triangle shaped and 3 are rectangle shaped. Everyday ...

A research team from the Institute of Biological Information Processing (IBI-3) at Forschungszentrum Jülich, working with ...

allowing graphene to 3) adapt, or conform to the shape of a prepared substrate, to achieve damage-free, large area integration of graphene on 3D microstructures. "Our swelling, shrinking ...

3D representations of objects and animals in a matter of seconds. The generated shapes are created in a popular format that can be used by standard graphics rendering applications, meaning they ...

Touch feedback has been advancing rapidly of recent time, and now we’ve gotten to the stage where ultrasound can be used to create entire 3D shapes to touch and feel in thin air. We’ve seen 2D ...

Carnegie Mellon researchers have created a method that generates knitting patterns for arbitrary 3D shapes, opening the possibility of “on-demand knitting.” Think 3D printing, but softer.

Wen Wang of Carnegie Mellon University in Pennsylvania and her colleagues have developed edible 2D pasta that swells into 3D shapes when cooked, such as long spirals resembling fusilli and saddle ...
