Apart from the obvious convenience that comes from automating the cleaning process, robot vacuums offer excellent versatility, integration with smart homes, and pet-friendly features. [Read more…] about What Makes Robot Vacuums A Must-Have Home Appliance?

Generative design: nTopology blazing a trail through 3D printing world

by

One of the most impressive features of the nTopology design application is that it requires substantially less computing power. According to the company’s – and its partners’ – calculations, file sizes can be 99 percent smaller compared with traditional 3D design software. 

Traditional, long-established software for 3D design tends to be very memory-hungry and can seriously stress out processors. nTop, on the other hand, can provide the same functionality if used on a laptop as traditional 3D design applications would if run on a supercomputer – because nTop was specifically designed for today’s 3D printing and design requirements.

The way nTop does this is difficult to explain for a non-technical journalist, but essentially, the nTop software does away with such things as extrusion, which is a fundamental concept and requirement in traditional 3D design applications.
