Prototyping Tools and Testing Prototyping is one way to see and test your website before you spend long nights coding and programming. Although the website design process and mockup tools tends to be relatively fluid, the prototyping phase typically focuses on Visual layoutInterface element designLogical flowBehavior Most prototyping software and programs show some level of design and logic flow (similar to a Photoshop mockup), but usually with slightly more interactivity. For example, you’ll be able to insert an actual picture into your prototype (rather than just a symbol for where an image will go as in more low-fidelity wireframing tools). Or you might be able to link the header image to another prototype page, so the feature is clickable, even though it’s not a live site. It is crucial to test your website during the prototyping stage. After all, users are going to be the ones using it—and why would you waste time and effort building something that, in the end, users don’t need, understand or want? AppSketcher

This is how the Smithsonian made Obama's historic 3D printed bust Museums are replete with exquisite, lifelike busts of U.S. presidents and heads of state. Many were made when their subjects, such as George Washington and Ben Franklin, were still alive. Yet, for all their verisimilitude, they’re still artists’ interpretations of what these historical figures looked like. President Barack Obama’s bust, by contrast, is a kind of facsimile never seen before in a presidential representation. That’s because the latest presidential statue in Smithsonian’s Castle Commons gallery is the result of a 3D scan, the first of its kind of a U.S. president. We first learned of this technological feat last June — and now we can see exactly how Smithsonian’s Digitization Program team did it. On Tuesday, The White House and Smithsonian released a behind-the-scenes video that revealed the process necessary to accurately and comprehensively capture Obama’s 3D data. The best part of the video, though, may be when Obama meets his eerily life-like bust for the first time.

Wie Digitalisierung die Arbeitswelt verändert: Innovation im Handwerk durch 3-Druck Austausch zwischen Hochschule & Handwerk Der Design-Tower liegt auf dem Trinity Technology & Enterprise Campus, gleich neben digitalen Größen wie Google oder Facebook. Das Gebäude selbst gehört Dublins berühmter Universität, dem Trinity-College, das hier kleinen Handwerksstudios für vergleichsweise moderate Mieten die Möglichkeit einräumt, ihr Business auszuüben. Im Gegenzug geben die Handwerker auch Kurse an den Hochschulen oder tauschen sich anderweitig mit diesen aus. Vorreiter beim Wandel der Arbeitswelt Die Kooperation aus Hochschule und Handwerk wäre in Deutschland wohl nahezu undenkbar und auch in Irland ist die Verbindung nahezu einzigartig – die Verbindung mit dem IT-Standort macht das Projekt nahezu zu einem genialen Vorreiter im Wandel von der indistrualisierten zur digitalisierten Arbeistwelt. Ich treffe die beiden Goldschmiede Lee Harding und Seamus O Donaghue, die im obersten Stockwerk des Design-Towers ein kleines Atelier haben. Wie der 3-Druck das Handwerk verändert

Workshop 3D printing | Master en Diseño y Desarrollo de Producto En el Postgrado en Desarrollo de Producto, se realiza el “Workshop 3D Printing”, que persigue la aplicación práctica de los contenidos impartidos en el área de Tecnologías de Fabricación de Producto. Felip Fenollosa i Artés, que imparte este exitoso Workshop desde el curso 2011, es el Director General de la Fundación CIM, centro tecnológico integrado en la UPC (Universidad Politécnica de Catalunya) que proporciona formación y da soporte a las empresas en el ámbito de las tecnologías avanzadas de la producción. En la edición del workshop de este curso, se han realizado varias propuestas de diseño de mecanismos ensamblados totalmente diferentes y de gran nivel : desde un dispensador de alimento para animales domésticos o un despertador que anda, pasando por un altavoz portátil o un lapicero saltarín, hasta un coche 4×4 o una luminaria dinámica para la habitación de los niños… Al final del workshop, todos los grupos acabaron con su diseño de mecanismos/objetos imposibles en sus manos.

Thingiverse - Digital Designs for Physical Objects Technologie des Monats: 3D-Druck | Hochschulforum Digitalisierung So sehen die Patronen von 3D-Druckern vermutlich nicht aus. Isaac Bowen, CC-BY-SA 2.0 via flickr.com Egal ob auf der internationalen Raumstation ISS, im Zahnlabor oder im Wohnzimmer – 3D-Drucker erobern die Welt. Die Einsatzgebiete sind vielfältig und die Vision des Replikators vom Raumschiff Enterprise, welcher auch beliebige Lebensmittel erzeugen kann, scheint langfristig nicht mehr abwegig. Erste Geräte für 3D-Erzeugnisse aus Teig für Pasta, Zuckerguss und Schokolade sind bereits auf dem Markt. Die Anwendungsszenarien von per 3D-Druck erzeugten Objekten sind sehr vielfältig und reichen vom klassischen Einsatz in den Ingenieurs- und Naturwissenschaften für die Visualisierung von komplexen Sachverhalten und dem Testen von Prototypen, bis hin zur Medizin zur Erzeugung von Implantaten und Organmodellen. Spannend dazu auch der Vortrag "Potential 3D-Druck: Konstruktivismus Revisited" von Prof. Kurz zur Technik Zu den aktuell populärsten und günstigen Verfahren gehört die Schmelzschichtung.

Wednesday Roundup: Ten 3D Printable Things–Marvel Comics Superhero Costumes It’s October, so you know what that means: Halloween is on its way! So it’s time to start worrying about what you’re going to wear for the big night. In honor of Marvel’s recently announced Ant-Man and The Wasp movie and three new unnamed movies being added to their line-up of mega-successful comic book inspired superhero movies, what better costume could there be than for a Marvel character? So I scoured the internet and found ten of the best 3D printable Marvel Props and Costumes that the world of 3D printing has to offer. And remember, there are no gender rules for Halloween or cosplay no matter what that jerk at the comic shop says. Most of the costumes that I found are easily gender-swappable, and the comics even have female versions who have taken up their mantels.
