Soren Monroe-Anderson (Soren Monroe-Anderson) explains why it doesn't make sense for Neros to 3D print their drones in the battlefield: "We are focused on mass production." "3D printing is generally good for making a few of a thing, making lots of different things. We are mostly focused on making...

.Neros Technologies just won a $500M-ceiling US Army contract for its Archer FPV drones. CEO Soren Monroe-Anderson (Soren Monroe-Anderson) on why scaling drone production is the hard part and why very few are doing it well. "I think a lot of drone companies or just a lot of companies in the defense tech space sort of claim that they're ready to produce at scale when they're not, like they haven't proved it... And so a lot of the IP is how we build drones, how we test drones, how we design drones for testing, for reliability, for manufacturability, all of the data we've collected is we've built tens of thousands of drones. These are things that you can't just like drop in and replicate... Like it's really not that hard to put together an FPV drone and go demo it and even get like a contract off of that. It's consistent scale production that's hard."

Soren Monroe-Anderson (Soren Monroe-Anderson) explains why Neros' drones win: "Our airframes right now are mostly made out of carbon plates. Carbon is really light and really strong. But it doesn't have some of the advantages of what they were doing with those metal bodies which is that you get to use it as a heat sink." "We actually do this on our drone now where the bottom plate is an aluminum plate, and we contact the motherboard and the radios with thermal interface material when we close out the drone with that bottom plate, and so that acts as a big heat sink." "It's just a flat plate that is cut into a shape in 2D versus having to be cast or CNC'd, which is just a lot cheaper for mass manufacturing."

The newest version of Neros' Bandit interceptor drone can fly 300 kilometers per hour: "300 is a pretty good spot for taking out typical Shahed drones." "To go after jet-powered Shahed drones, we need to be closer to 400 km/h, so that would be the ideal end state." — Neros Technologies CEO Soren Monroe-Anderson (Soren Monroe-Anderson)

Adobe.. has released a tool that combines Generative Gaussian Splats with a Diffusion layer and it's not all over the internet? WHAT IS GOING ON :D I had to test this out ofc! Substance 3D viewer, the new 3d viewer just released by Adobe, not only supports viewing of a large, large list of 3d formats, but it also supports generating of 3d models as Gaussian Splats. Combine that with the built-in 3d to image functionality and you basically have at least a few of the steps I've been doing for the last year or so using multiple tools. Exciting stuff! The new Photoshop Beta also supports the 3D viewer and you can import 3d files directly in photoshop as smart objects linked to the viewer. The elements you prompt in based on your models, can be easily exported to your clipboard without backgrounds making it very easy to use this in your normal image editing workflows. I have a suspicion that we'll see much more of this in other Adobe tools and I'm very curious to see this used for things like this in more 3d tools than "just" Adobe Neo (which is fantastic btw). #adobe #art #gaussiansplatting

China's drone manufacturing capability "I think today China's easily at 100 million drones a year. I mean, they're supplying most of the components to Ukraine and Russia and both sides are gonna use about 7 million FPV's this year. America is in the hundreds of thousands and there is no company that will domestically build 100,000 drones this year. Neros is trying to get close. We'll be over 100,000 run rate by the end of the year. We have to have production capacity in the millions, tens of millions for credible deterrence, but we also want to solve the problems smarter."

3D modeling always felt like one of those skills you need years to master But I tested Hi3D, and the interesting part is not just that it creates 3D models It’s how fast you can go from a simple image to something you can prototype, download, edit, or even prepare for printing Here are 5 ways I would actually use it:

a mutual here on x asked me how professionals design wings for aircraft and drones in cad, so I put together a quick, high-level overview of how this process is generally done, and showed how the 3d model is constructed if anyone wants a high-level or technical breakdown of anything aircraft or jet engine-related, just shoot me a dm. if I’m knowledgeable on it, I’d be happy to make a video explaining it at the level of complexity you’re comfortable with. same goes for any powder bed metal 3d printing processes, specifically dmls and electron beam sintering

A great example of the slow and steady progress of 3D printing is that it's now possible to print functional fabrics with low-cost FDM printers. It's not economical, but think of where this technology was in 2016. What a fascinating modern age we live in.

Even though The Bullfrog, Allen Control Systems's AI-powered machine gun, is designed to shoot down Group 1 and 2 drones, which are by far the most difficult to destroy, it can still damage Group 3 Iranian Shahed drones. "We are currently focused on being the best at shooting down Group 1 and Group 2 drones, which are absolutely the hardest drones to engage... That said, we can shoot down Group 1 drones that are very far away." - CEO Michael Wior "So if I can hit a 7-inch target on a Group 1 drone from very far away, I can hit very vulnerable parts of a [Group 3] Shahed at the same distance." "Lasers are pretty good at shooting down Group 3 drones, but you have to keep your laser on target for 5 to 15 seconds in order to damage the airframe." "So while we're not the ideal solution for engaging those larger targets, when they get closer and you need that last line of defense, we are absolutely a great solution for taking those out of the air."

Prusa CORE One - Side Storage This is a custom-made modular storage system for the Prusa CORE One 3D printer which fits neatly in the left-side recess. Once you print the body of the storage box, you can then decide what type of accessories you want to use - there are various options and you can, of course, design your own. Prusa CORE One - Printable DryBox This is a custom-made, 3D-printable DryBox for the Prusa CORE One 3D printer. It is designed to fit perfectly into the right-side recess (where the spool holder is located). This DryBox enables you to store your filament spools in a more controlled environment - don't forget to add silica gel into the DryBox for it to work. Keep in mind that it's not airtight, so there will be some humidity build-up over time. #3dprinters #3dprinted #3dprint #3dprinting #prusa3d #prusa #prusa #3d #3dprinter #prusaresearch #3dart #diy #diyproject #prusacore #coreone #prusacore #core #drybox #storage #sidepanel #printsheet

Did you know your robot vacuum creates a 3D map of your home? Then they store it on data servers which you have no access to. When you get into the fine print of who really owns the maps… It gets messy. Smart appliances are not a smart thing to have in your home.

Midjourney-to-3D is now available! (Indeed, you can convert any 2D image to 3D) Please note that, for now, you'll need to manually set a depth map for your image in order to view its correct 3D version. (You can use to generate the depth map) But... stay tuned! We'll soon be offering instant 3D conversion for any image. *This is just an experimental version, and any feedback or videos of your results would be really interesting to see!

Ukrainian Defenders of the Safari Assault Regiment of the Liut Brigade use drones not only for reconnaissance, but also to create highly accurate digital copies of the battlefield. Terrain scanning and detailed 3D maps make it possible to study the area thoroughly, even before heading out on a mission. Meanwhile, training with VR headsets helps soldiers prepare for missions in conditions that are as close to reality as possible. The use of technologies is not only about precision and effectiveness, but also about safety for every Warrior. 📹: Liut Brigade
