Many of us have seen at least one movie where you wore your 3D glasses and observed floating objects in front of you from the movie screen. Well, modeling and printing 3D objects are not impossible anymore. In this webinar, Mark William DeMorra explains 3D modeling and printing in detail and takes you on a tour of the TinkerCAD software with beautiful insights.
The 3D process was first created in the 1980s and has only been publicly consumable for 10 years. In addition, the price point, and the accessibility of 3D printing are getting better with time. 3D printing is an additive manufacturing process that uses the material to construct an object from a 3D model created using CAD software. The 3D printers come in different sizes, brands, and models. However, 3D printing is not as essential as 3D modeling because the 3D modeling creates an object or surface on a computer by using coordinate & mathematically based graphical representation software, which is an ore skill in 3D design.
3D printing applications and uses are very essential in the STEM world. 3D printing is used for engineering design to tests the floors and loads as an example. Architects use 3D printing as well to apply their architectural models for their clients to present their designs realistically. Also, video gamers use 3D printing to create and design their fictional characters. There are several 3D modeling software options, but TinkerCAD is recommended for kids and first-time users. For instance, some kids created Christmas cookie cutters and others built a 3D model of an Eiffel tower!
