Further 3D Projects Combining Additional Programs and Apps

 

We have a number of students who are working on the development of combining Pic Collage with its filters to Tinkercad designs which are then presented in different formats.

We are combining the boat, shown left with various students completing designs of the paddles or the oars.   Realistically for our classroom to complete all of the boats would take too long (these are roughly eight hours each at present) therefore we have opted to focus on printing the oars and paddles instead which are generally taking about thirty minutes.  The example shown left shows the original catamaran and paddle combination.   The objects have been placed directly on a printed out copy of a Pic Collage example.   This has used the 'festive' filter which has taken several seconds to apply the details that are shown, which has placed the boat in a winter location.

We have also looked at expanding our Pixton Comics, related to our Tinkercad Designs.

Again when we are working with a class of twenty seven students and using a #3DPriting shared with our class and the wider school we cannot use it all the time, and in particular we have mentioned in the past designs which look creative and the students are sometimes no practical to print.

This is a more detailed version of a previous task where we were using a single frame to illustrate a point, in the example shown left the students had to produce a minimum of four frames that included two different screen shots or design from Tinkercad with a filter or an altered image, the way that the boat will be powered (in this instance the paddle design) and finally a shot or screenshot of the Sphero Robot which is ultimately the way which the ship will be powered.
