How is this impressive?? Have you seen the video of liong ma's maker portfolio of making an electric car with nuclear fusion from scratch?? This video is child's play, literally anyone can use a 3d printer and print something lol.
Congratulations, I hope to see more of you in the future, as well as that software you are developing for extracting sketches from images. It would be insanely helpful in the 3D printing scene.
Cool stuff! The weapons reminds me of RWBY somehow, where they have weapons that are a combination of two and can fold and extend etc. Enjoy the study!
None of the high schools in my country had any cs classes nor computer classes and still don’t. What we had was bunch of textbooks to study for and exam and I get my first computer when I started in uni… It just feels really different for many cases. (I born in 2002)
Not sure if you will see this, but I was wondering why detecting the edges on a part would help with 3D printing. Btw you did a bunch of cool stuff and I wish you l the best at MIT!
@@okaytree7711 Thanks for your comment! The goal is to be able to take a photo of an object and get an SVG file, with specific parameters that make it easier to work with in 3D design software such as Fusion 360. In my example, to design the butterfly knife, I had to manually trace that image. Automatic generation of it from the reference image would have helped me significantly.
@@Etranck I used Fusion 360, which is free for students. You can also use Onshape (also free for students) or blender. I like fusion and Onshape because you can make parametrized designs.
He probably learns everything himself. Obviously, when he started he might have a good mentor (in tech) or maybe continue to have so. It might be his father, mother, brother or someone he knows closely.
Hi, thanks for asking! I mostly found things I wanted to model, and tried my best with reference photos. I usually start by tracing the reference image (which is why I'm making that software) and then extruding the main features. Just find things you want to model and practice, practice, practice!
