Scientists created a massive digital library of ants using synchrotron X-ray scanning, robotics, and artificial intelligence.

Digital insects A new colour 3D modelling system developed in Australia is digitising even the tiniest insects to help researchers study them better. The models could also have applications in ...

A new, simple scanning system can create precise 3D models of insects in color. The system uses off-the-shelf equipment, including a camera and a computer, to obtain detailed, true-color 3D images of ...

Experts from the University of Nottingham have created life-size 3D-printed insect models to explore how some species trick predators into thinking they're more dangerous than they really are—and ...

Ants are very tiny, so conventional 3D scanners aren’t really going to do a very good job of capturing the insect geometry.

3D printed models of a wasp (front), a fly (rear), and a series of intermediate mimics generated by 3D morphing. Experts from the University of Nottingham have created life-size 3D-printed insect ...
