Nice work, Karl!
Also, see the 3D model that professor Pablo Garcia (Architecture) made from interpolated Muybridge horse stills. He would love your project, you should show this to him!!

(p.s. Thanks for sharing info about your capture tool too: iShowU)

fantastic

This is nice, have you thought about smoothing the steps so that there aren’t any sharp corners as one slice progresses to the next?

Nifty. Ok, not shockingly (given your background), you’ve thought of 3D printing this already. 🙂 Look at the similar promotion Fritzing just ran (running the best 24 projects after launch into actual, fabricated PCBs at no charge) in terms of building up publicity for your tool. -SB

Very cool! I kind of wish your final images had smoother edges (actually I saw a smooth setting in your interface so maybe that helps?) from the first image to the last image. I think this is a viable tool. I wish you could’ve printed some of your final images out in 3D…but I know it can be kind of expensive to do that at CMU. Very nice though! I like…I’d definitly be interested in using a tool like this after it’s been primmed up a little more. 🙂 –Amanda
