Through the topology optimization of the bicycle frame deployment, and then according to the corresponding optimization results, the optimization of the corresponding frame prototype is completed, and then the bicycle is produced by 3D printing. The topology-optimized bicycle frame not only reasonably plans the material structure distribution , but also reduces the energy consumption rate and the emission of harmful substances in production.
Continue readingDefeXtiles is a rapid and low-cost technique to produce realistic high-fidelity textiles on 3D printers. The work demonstrates that under-extrusion defects can be finely controlled to quickly print thin flexible textiles into complex 3D shapes. This approach enables a myriad of applications including printing full sized garments, deformable tangible interfaces, and ultra-tough shuttlecocks.
Continue readingThe LumiBee is a compact 3D Printer that uses light curable liquid resin. It has been designed so that 95% of its parts can be printed with a filament based, low cost 3D Printer that you have at home. The LumiBee is also particular since it uses the light from the screen of a mobile phone, inserted inside, to transform the liquid resin into a three-dimensional object, using an Android App. Its structure is modular, where segments, each with a specific function, can be modified and customized.
Continue readingYinyun is an art installation composed of 85 unique 3D printed ceramic units, located in Taipower D/S ONE exhibition hall in Taipei, Taiwan. Through generative design algorithm, the electric data was extracted and visualized on every unit, together creating a gradient effect. Ceramic 3D printing, with a mixture of recycled material, was then used to fabricate these units, at the same time, creating detailed surface relief which was indicated by this technique. None of the units is the same as others.
Continue readingIn Japan, the number of smartphone dependents is increasing. There are many children in particular. They can't let go of their smartphone. Keep watching your smartphone screen until you go to bed. It is more likely to cause sleep disorders. The designer wanted to let go of the smartphone and designed an unprecedented smartphone stand. Recommended for people with smartphone addiction. Addictive people don't let go of their smartphones for 24 hours. It will eliminate it a little. Integrate your smartphone and stand. The situation is very humorous. Usage is simple.
Continue readingPulse is a stylish floating pen inspired by the elegance and simplicity of a drifting cloud. It offers a fresh take on an everyday object that has seen little evolution, combining functionality with refined aesthetics. The project explores various metal finishing techniques applied to generative, nature-inspired patterns, resulting in biomorphic structures that enhance both visual and functional qualities. The process also provided deeper insight into the metal finishing and plating industry.
