We use CAD packages in our 3D work, and it’s likely that many of us have become annoyed by the limitations of controlling the ...

The new tool in Photoshop Beta lets you turn 2D images into 3D-rotatable objects. I tried it out on a handful of items but wasn’t too impressed with the results. It took normal objects and gave them a ...

Rotating bodies often move in surprising ways with flips and wobbles that reveal the hidden rules of physics. Dodgers great Clayton Kershaw ends his career unaware at first that he won the World ...

What do puzzles, gymnastics, writing and using maps all have in common? They all rely on people’s ability to visualize objects as they spin, flip or turn in space, without physically moving them. This ...

Physicists studied crystals made of rotating objects that fragment easily, show unusual defects, and follow a new theory predicting their unique behavior. (Nanowerk News) Physicists from Aachen, ...

The world is filled with rotating objects—gyroscopes, magnetic spins, and more recently, qubits in quantum computers. For example, the atomic nuclei in our bodies precess at megahertz frequencies ...

Hmmm: Why do some players invert the Y-axis in video games? To many, it seems strange to make down mean up and up mean down. For inverters like me, it feels natural – the default setting is as awkward ...
