The Applications and Principles of 3D

The use of 3D is something that is incredibly common, in a wide range of mediums today. From video games to films, and even furniture design.

One place where 3D is used now is in real estate. 3D visualizations of a home have the upper hand over a 2D blueprint, as they can be alot more accurate and better designed. They essentialy give the buyer a chance to view the property, even if the building is in the pre-contstruction.

Computer-aided design (CAD) and Computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) are two uses of 3D technology. CAD is the process of going through and desiging a 3D product, whereas CAM is controlling the creation of the product, based on the design itself.

A more common use of 3D technology is in medicine. Generally used to give a more detailed view of the human body. For example, plastic surgeons would use this to get exact measurements to change and form shapes.
