SAM 3D Objects is a foundation model that reconstructs full 3D shape geometry, texture, and layout from a single image, excelling in real-world scenarios with occlusion and clutter by using ...

A new mathematical equation describes the distribution of different fragment sizes when an object breaks. Remarkably, the distribution is the same for everything from bubbles to spaghetti. When you ...

A dropped plate, a smashed sugar cube and a broken drinking glass all seem to follow the same law of physics when it comes to how many fragments of a given size they will shatter into. For several ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent every weekday. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Since 3D printers debuted in the 1980s, the devices have been used ...

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 ...

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 ...

If you miss the donut storms the first go around, you'll need to survive until the next Storm Circle closes. You can avoid all of the donuts falling from the sky and safely pick up what you've already ...

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 the physical world could be captured with such precision that it became indistinguishable from its digital counterpart? This is the bold ambition driving the collaboration between Microsoft ...

If you weren’t around and I asked your buddies how well you fillet fish, what would they tell me? Perhaps your knife skills are stellar, and they’d shower you with praise. Or would they say you leave ...
