Researchers have developed a technique that programs 2D materials to transform into complex 3D 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.

Yesterday's Adobe MAX 2024 presentation of Project Turntable for Illustrator has set the design world abuzz with excitement. If the tool works as demoed, it will change how artists work with 2D ...

For the first time, researchers combined 2D printing, origami, and chemistry to create a method of rapid 3D object fabrication without creating any waste material. These shapes self-fold in seconds.

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?
