The Fingertracking device is an add-on to the ART tracking system, which allows you to track the orientation of the hand and the position of the fingers. It is wireless, works for one as well as for both hands and is available as a three or five finger version.
" Time lapse photography of a 3D print on a Makerbot Replicator. This is my first print at .1mm layer height. There is a significant increase in detail compared to printing the same mode
l at .2mm height. It takes longer, but in a print like this it is worth it. The layer ridges are still visible, but are much less evident..." Yoda
Mental Floss "What do we want robots to do for us? The field of robotics is making great leaps in robot abilities, but these abilities come one at a time. We won’t have Rosie from The Jetsons until the various specific tasks are combined into one machine. When that happens, they will take over. But until then, you’ll have to choose the purpose of your robot, and hope it can do that specific task well. Here are some of the most recently-unveiled robots and what they can do..." Miss Cellania
"An undergraduate engineering student at Johns Hopkins University, Tiras Lin, has used high-speed, high-resolution cameras to gain a new perspective on the mechanics of a painted lady butterfly's flight patterns. Information gathered from his research may be used to construct better designs for micro aerial vehicles that could be used by the United States military."
Butterfly Flight Inspires Better Flying Robots
"Mechanical engineers aim high-speed video cameras at planet's prettiest bugs to obtain flight insights."
Non only a confusion exists among the public between art and craftmanship, but indeed in many cases expression has been limited by technical difficulties. 3D printing is crossing over the matter (pun intended) therefore allowing a real freedom of creation...
Objet & d-Vision 3D Printing
Revolution in Art & Design using 3D Printing | Objet for Neri Oxman
"In this insightful interview, Neri Oxman,architect, designer and professor of Media Arts and Sciences and Director of the Mediated Matter group at the MIT Media Lab, explains the differences between 'additive' and 'subtractive' manufacturing. Inspired by things that 'grow' in nature, Oxman uses the world's most advanced 3D printing technology - the Objet Connex500 multi-material 3D printer to produce some incredible models which will be on display at the Pompidou Center until August 6th 2012 at the 'Multiversites Creatives' exhibit. Neri also explains 3D printing within the wider paradigm shift in technology and manufacturing - comparing it to the Gutenberg 2D print revolution of the 1440's."
