Drawing furniture

FRONT furnitureThe FRONT software system allows people to trace out furniture, or any object, in 3D and completely realtime. The system then relays it to an fabrication device to mold the drawn model into an actual piece of plastic furniture.

The first part of this video is the drawing/modelling, and the second half shows a bit of the fabrication and the final pieces. Although it is a bit odd that they don’t show the pieces in use. No one sits on the little lumpy chair or drinks a gin n’ tonic off the swirly holey table.

NASA Spacecraft Make First 3-D Images of the Sun

Two spacecraft, just enough apart to make a stereoscopic image of anything they are pointng at, have been used to make stereoscopic images of the Sun.

Here is the release statement.

And here is the link to the page with all the pictures. Although they are true stereoscopic, they don’t seem to be offering the pictures in anything but red/blue 3d glasses format. There are movies as well as pictures.

Some samples (click to enlarge):
