Turning a boring 2D photo into a more dynamic, 3D-like viewing experience might sound impossible. But you can do it right from your phone running iOS 26, thanks to Apple's new Spatial Scenes. Apple's ...

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 ...

After more than three centuries, a geometry problem that originated with a royal bet has been solved. Imagine you’re holding two equal-size dice. Is it possible to bore a tunnel through one die that’s ...

Mark has been thinking and writing about games since a Gameboy Pocket and a copy of Link's Awakening was first placed into his tender, seven-year-old hands. Since then, he snagged a creative writing ...

Abstract: This paper describes a vision system that can extract 2D and 3D visual properties of mango such as size (length, width, and thickness), projected area, volume, and surface area from images ...

To Be Hero X episode 2 has once again enthralled fans with its immaculate fusion of 3D and 2D animation. While Nice's narrative is mainly shown in a 3D model, there are certain scenes or situations ...

These two worksheets focus on 3D shapes. Use them in KS1 and KS2 primary maths lessons. They provide an excellent opportunity for hands-on learning about the names and properties of 3D shapes. This ...

Tiling a space with a repeated pattern that has no gaps or overlaps (a structure known as a tessellation) is what led mathematician [Gábor Domokos] to ponder a question: how few corners can a shape ...

How few corners can a shape have and still tile the plane?” mathematician Gábor Domokos asked me over pizza. His deceptively simple question was about the geometry of tilings, also called ...

Start by recapping and checking retrieval of 2D and 3D shapes, their names and their properties. Explain that you want to build a model train using 3D shapes (these could be shape models or cardboard ...

Three-dimensional imaging outperformed older digital mammography at reducing anxiety-producing callbacks for more breast cancer testing, a new study shows. The research, published this month in the ...
