Meta Platforms Inc. today is expanding its suite of open-source Segment Anything computer vision models with the release of SAM 3 and SAM 3D, introducing enhanced object recognition and ...

We’re introducing SAM 3 and SAM 3D, the newest additions to our Segment Anything Collection, which advance AI understanding of the visual world. SAM 3 enables detection and tracking of objects in ...

Computer-aided design (CAD) is the go-to method for designing most of today's physical products. Engineers use CAD to turn 2D sketches into 3D models that they can then test and refine before sending ...

If you find 3D printers to be just a little too coldly futuristic, this contraption might be more to your liking. Scientists from Cornell University have created a machine that knits solid 3D objects ...

What if you could create a fully-formed, intricately detailed 3D object in the time it takes to brew a cup of coffee? It sounds like science fiction, but with volumetric 3D printing, this is now a ...

Two MIT graduates have developed an AI-powered 3D printer that converts household food waste into functional objects like cup holders, coasters, and decorative items. What if you could use your ...

One-pot recipes make preparing meals quick and easy. And one-pot 3D-printing could do the same for additive manufacturing. "Vat photopolymerization is known for its fast and high-resolution printing, ...

Apple’s Machine Learning team, in collaboration with researchers from Nanjing University and The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, has announced an interesting 3D AI model called ...

Abstract: Due to the ill-posed nature of locating 3D objects based on image inputs, objects detected by camera-based detectors tend to have considerable uncertainty in their localization. Previous ...

Abstract: In this research, we present a new method on how to reconstruct 3D object from 2D images by employing Variational Autoencoders (VAE). His generality is a bit stark; however, it is well ...
