Autodesk EAGLE, a widely acclaimed software for electronic design, is about to undergo significant transformations, and the project team is eager to unveil their new strategy to users. Since Autodesk’s acquisition of EAGLE, it has been clear that the intention was to merge electronics, mechanical design, and manufacturing into an integrated solution. The ultimate goal…
A game controller is a device used to give inputs in a video game to make the character or object move. The design and functionality of a game controller are easy and will definitely give you an amazing experience of gaming, And it will be more involving when you’ll know the process to make…
Designed to resemble a spell book the mini laptop built by Hackaday member Calvin Nemo was created using TinkerCAD 3D printed outer shell which houses the Raspberry Pi Zero mini PC and other components. The general idea is that the outside panels of the “book” are made out of steel cut from the side panel…
Back in 2015, California-based startup 3D Robotics seemed poised to compete for the top spot in the consumer drone market. It had a great reputation among the hobbyist community and a slick unit called the Solo. Unfortunately, the Solo’s performance and sales didn’t live up to expectations, and last year, 3D Robotics bowed out of…
Last year, we reported on a French tattoo studio that hacked a MakerBot printer and turned it into a tattooing machine. At the time, it was still a pretty rough, if cool, concept – tatoué, as Appropriate Audiences named their invention, was able to tattoo a few basic shapes onto a person who inserted his or…
Innovators working with an effort called Project Escher at design software firm Autodesk recently told Design News they will soon release a new software product that should greatly increase the performance of 3D printing. The new solution applies a parallel processing model to 3D printing, by supporting a new type of hardware that engages multiple…
Believe it or not, but as an adult I actually enjoy shopping for Christmas presents far more than I enjoy receiving them. Not that I don’t enjoy getting presents; I will happily provide you with an address to send me free things, but in my family we always put a lot more focus on finding…
ReMake converts a sequence of photos or scan data into high resolution 3D meshes and provides a smart toolset to clean, repair, and optimize the mesh for design and engineering workflows, digital archiving, interactive AR/VR experiences, and fabrication — all in one package. Designed to handle dense reality data that often slows down other software,…
Autodesk’s ChronoFab is a tool designed specifically for capturing the look-and-feel of movement in an inanimate 3D object file by combining dynamic physics algorithms and whatever 3D model it is that you’re hoping to infuse the illusion of motion into. Inspired by 2D comic book art (where smoke clouds and motion trails have been adding…
Through their Project Escher, Autodesk is now working to turn 3D printing software upside down with a smart 3D printing production line that creates very large objects by running multiple toolpaths between multiple collaborating machines very efficiently. Could this be the future of large scale 3D printing? Autodesk is no stranger to 3D printing hardware…
After releasing their first, and open source, stereolithographic 3D printer, the Ember, Autodesk announced the release of an open source resin for Ember printer and all the other compatible printers from makers all over the world. This is a clear and strong signal from Autodesk that is aiming first at trying to make 3D…
My impression is that this Autodesk strategic project potential just went a little underestimated: Autodesk is developing Project Wire, a Spark Powered design tool for creating 3D printable electronic devices. We have partnered with Voxel8 to enable the fabrication of truly freeform three-dimensional circuits for the first time. We believe future electronic devices will be…
