Two videos on printing heart-shaped dish and cup by using directed 3D-printing and deformation-based 3D-design methods were uploaded to YouTube. The video of the dish is in this page. The video of the cup is in this page. Products by using these methods are sold in Yahoo! Japan shop (currently shipping within Japan only).

Published two directed 3D-printing libraries (December 12, 2014 12:20 AM)

A Python library for directed 3D-printing and deformation-based 3D-design was published in a program library site. Cups, dishes, vases, spheres, or other objects can be created using this library. Another Python library for 3D turtle-graphics-based 3D-printing was also published in the same site.

Two short videos on printing empty spheres are on YouTube (December 11, 2014 11:34 PM)

Two videos on printing spheres by using directed 3D-printing and deformation-based 3D-design methods were uploaded to YouTube. One of them is on printing a sphere with vertically swinging head motion. The other is on printing a sphere normally. The second is an improved (much precise) version of previously uploaded video. Products by using these methods are sold in Yahoo! Japan shop (currently shipping within Japan only).
