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.

Scientists suggest algae could be embedded within biosensors that glow when toxins detected in the environment The captivating blue glow emitted by a sea-dwelling species of algae has been harnessed ...

Miniature organs grown in the lab can organize themselves into complex shapes, which enables scientists to use them to study disease. The trouble is they never do it the same way twice, which has made ...

Abstract: In recent years, with the rapid growth number of multi-modal 3D shapes, it has become increasingly important to efficiently recognize a vast number of unlabeled multi-modal 3D shapes through ...

Cobra is giving golfers more opportunities to fit into their groundbreaking 3D-printed irons. Joining the 3DP Tour irons, which are the first commercially available 3D-printed irons in the game, Cobra ...

Decades of research has viewed DNA as a sequence-based instruction manual; yet every cell in the body shares the same genes – so where is the language that writes the memory of cell identities?

Can you drill a hole in a cube that an identical cube could fall through? Prince Rupert of the Rhine first asked this question in the 17th century, and he soon found out the answer is yes. One can ...

A few years ago, AI-generated 3D modeling belonged to research labs and Hollywood studios. Today, it’s seeping into classrooms, social media memes, and mainstream creative tools — and it’s doing so ...

The new technique enables the generation of sharper, more lifelike 3D shapes — like these robotic bees — without the need to retrain or finetune a generative AI model. Credits: MIT News MIT ...
