3D printing helps Paralympians improve their athletic performance / +1
Society
Technology makes assistive devices more accessible
Photo: iStockAthletes with various disabilities participate in the Paralympic Games. Many of them use assistive devices: prostheses, wheelchairs, special gloves. 3D printing technology is increasingly being used to manufacture these devices. University of Queensland and University of Technology Sydney researchers James Novak and Andrew Novak note that this is an affordable way to improve athletic performance and keep athletes safe. Scientists warn that some competitors have access to more advanced tools, and this gives them a certain advantage. nine0003
Even during the Paralympic Games in Rio de Janeiro in 2016, German cyclist Denise Schindler performed with a 3D-printed prosthetic leg. She lost the lower part of her right leg as a child in a car accident and started playing sports at 18. The custom-made prosthesis was made by the American company Autodesk, which develops solutions for 3D design, design, graphics and animation. The cyclist and her team interacted with the company using the Fusion 360 cloud product modeling software. The developers came up with over 50 prosthetic designs before it was printed. nine0003
The product is made of polycarbonate (polymer plastic. — Approx. Plus-one.ru) and weighs less than 1 kg, while its carbon fiber counterpart is 1.5 kg. The production of a prosthesis can take from five days to ten weeks, the cost is from £ 3.5 thousand to 12 thousand. This year at her third Paralympic Games in Tokyo, 35-year-old Denise Schindler, who is called Killerbiene (from German - “bee killer"), won a bronze medal in the 3,000 m individual pursuit in classes C1-3. nine0003
New Zealand athlete Anna Grimaldi wears a 3D printed prosthesis. A girl who was born without an arm won first place in the long jump competition at the Paralympics in Tokyo. The prosthesis was made for her by Zenith Tecnica, a company based in Auckland, which specializes in titanium 3D printing and manufactures products for the medical, aerospace and other industries. The company said that the production process of the prosthesis, including the processing of digital models and printing itself, took only a few hours. Anna Grimaldi received the product thanks to High Performance Sport NZ. It is funded by the New Zealand government and works with national sports organizations to improve the performance of competitors. nine0003
From sports to manufacturing
James Novak and Andrew Novak also talk about athletes who have started making their own assistive devices. One of them is American track and field athlete, wheelchair racer Ariel Rauzin. In 2003, at the age of 10, she was paralyzed as a result of a spinal cord injury sustained in a car accident. In 2012, Ariel started wheelchair racing, and in 2016 she founded Ingenium Manufacturing, a company that 3D printed gloves for wheelchair athletes. The girl came up with an idea for a business as part of one of the tasks while studying at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. The company's website emphasizes that the gloves made of plastic are comfortable to use and strong enough to withstand serious force. The company produces gloves not only for professional athletes, but also for beginners. They cost $150, but buyers under the age of 18 can get a discount: Ariel Rauzin is sure that the high cost of equipment can be an obstacle to starting a sports career. In 2019In 2018, the track and field athlete reported that over 4,000 pairs of gloves had been sold to athletes from 31 countries in three years.
Another athlete who decided to launch his own production of various auxiliary products is the British paratriathlete, participant in the Paralympic Games, World Championships, and Ironman races (long-distance triathlon competitions. — Approx. Plus-one.ru) Joe Townsend. The man served in the British Royal Marines and lost both legs in 2008 in an explosion in Afghanistan. He started triathlon in 2011. At some point, Townsend discovered that there was practically no equipment on the market with optimal performance for athletes at an affordable price. One of the products that Joe Townsend decided to focus on was a bicycle crank that transmits power from the pedals to the wheels. Parts are made from composite compounds, such as MarkForged's Onyx material, which consists of nylon and chopped carbon fiber. They are printed on a Markforged Mark Two printer and reinforced with continuous fibers. Products are lightweight, durable and impact resistant. Their design can be adapted to the individual needs of each athlete - both amateur and professional. nine0003
Joe Townsend also 3D-prints other items, such as gloves and special handles (one of the parts of hand-operated bicycles. — Approx. Plus-one.ru). Gloves come in different stiffness: for example, a tough athlete uses during competitions to improve results, and more comfortable soft ones during training. Handles are made to order. The buyer receives plastic granules, which can be turned into a prototype of the desired shape with the help of hot water. The hardened part is sent to the manufacturer, who will print the desired component. nine0003 Ingenium Manufacturing gloves for wheelchair athletes

3D scanning and technology ethics
3D scanning is also used to manufacture assistive devices for paraathletes. It allows you to create three-dimensional models of various parts of the athlete's body and make equipment that is exactly the right size and shape. Back in 2016, the design studio of the German car, motorcycle and engine manufacturer BMW Designworks used 3D scanning technology to produce gloves for wheelchair athletes. The studio made 3D models of the athletes' accessories and then printed them on a 3D printer. This made the gloves lighter and more accurate. nine0003
3D-scanned Australian basketball and tennis player Dylan Olcott's wheelchair has also been created. It is made of carbon fiber and follows the body shape of a parasportsman. The seat, like other parts of the stroller, including the aluminum frame, was developed at the Australian Institute of Sport (Australian Institute of Sport, an educational and scientific institution. — Approx. Plus-one.ru). Compared to analogues, the stroller weighs less, has great maneuverability and is easy to repair. nine0003
James Novak and Andrew Novak note that these technologies are becoming more accessible. Already now, everyone can buy surf fins, various bicycle accessories, including bottle cages, bicycle chain guides, coasters, as well as sneakers with printed soles. Adidas has teamed up with American industrial 3D printing startup Carbon to develop an athletic shoe called the Futurecraft 4D.
Researchers warn that some athletes still have more resources and opportunities, which means they are much more likely to perform well during competition. By the way, the International Paralympic Committee emphasizes that all athletes should have access to equipment that primarily ensures their safety and protects their health. At the same time, according to experts, the results of the competition should be influenced by the abilities of people, and not by additional devices. nine0003

How a beginner can get into the gaming industry and start making 3D models
In this article you will learn:
— Why 3D is relevant and why we love it
— How to find your place in this industry
— Where to start learning, even if you have never modeled anything before
At the end of article you will find links to top resources
3D is needed everywhere
In 2005, 10 modelers were enough to make all the models for one game. Now in big games, the complexity and amount of content has grown so much that in addition to 20-30 modelers inside the studio itself, large companies hire up to 50 people remotely. nine0003
That is why in recent years many outsourcing studios have been opened in Russia and in the world, and some of them have more than 200 modelers!
The technology that video games use is insanely in demand. What's more, these technologies go far beyond the scope of video games.
As a result, the need for 3D artists is also constantly growing.
3D is not only video games
The technology of rendering 3D models in real time used to develop mainly due to computer games. Now it is used for virtual and augmented reality, interior visualization and motion design. nine0003
Even the weather forecast of some TV channels is based on real-time rendering!
Matrix previs. Even then it was relevant. Googled Previs for more videos like this.
And even Instagram masks are powered by Gamedev technologies!
The market is developing at a frantic pace. And every project needs cool 3D modelers.
Different three-dimensional, choose direction
I love 3D for its diversity. I'm interested in studying it from different angles. This is a world of interesting and unusual projects, and cool acquaintances.
I modeled tanks, cartoons, illustrations, posters and even videos for LJ's concert. Thanks to 3D graphics, I learned to see the beauty in the world around me, even where no one will look (sometimes I stick to rust spots on a car because they beautifully emphasize the shape)
As you can see, 3D is very different and it's not just models for games. In recent years, several new areas of work have emerged, in addition to the development of computer and mobile games. nine0003
3D directions
You can model for computer and mobile games .
2. You can model for cartoons and movies.
My Blindspot model from Love Death and Robots.
3. Take part in an indie project and make your own game together .
A piece of a diorama that we modeled together with Anton Ageev for a course on procedural textures. nine0003
Indie developers are a group of people who write their own games. Yes, many projects are done for free and sometimes it's a living hell. But on such projects, you will get connections and get experience working on a live project.
At the end of article we have posted links to several projects that you can join right now! Read more…
4. You can work on VR/AR projects.
Although this market is very small now, you can become the first and the best in it. In 5-10 years AR/VR will be everywhere. And the whole 2D design will move to 3D. nine0003
By the way, look how Jama Jurabaev makes top 3D art in VR.
5. Or you can go into cool motion design and make futuristic videos.
WATCH VIDEO
I once made a video for LJ's concert. Mastering motion design after modeling was quite easy for me. In this video, I did not model anything, but assembled a loop from a finished kitbash.
6. Models for mockups and workshops is also a promising direction. nine0003
Anrial marketplace has 1681+ pack of 3d models made by ordinary guys like you and me.
marketplaces are 3D model stores, such as Unity store or Unreal Marketplace. Example workshops are paid models for Dota 2 or textures for Counter Strike.
Guys in these directions sometimes earn from $5k/month. Here are a couple of guys who live off their stores on the marketplace:
http://www.dekogon.com/ nine0003
https://www.syntystudios.com/
Modelers are often invited to these studios to work together.
7. Or you can draw illustrations from 3D models.
Some of my illustrations. First, a 3D model is made, then the light and composition are set.
To be honest, I don't even know what to sign under the illustrations. They are just everywhere, and now more and more illustrations are being done in 3D. A lot of artists are into 3D, Pokras flirts with VR, and here is one of the coolest modern 3D artists. nine0003
Each direction is interesting in its own way, and each of them has many different vacancies:
Modelers, level designers, animators, special effects masters, progers, concept artists, screenwriters, testers, managers in various areas, marketers…
Personally, I see the creation of 3D models as a good start in this huge industry.
3D is the new language of the digital environment
This is the work that no modern project can do without. nine0047 Models are needed everywhere e.
3D modeling skills are a good starting point for learning computer graphics. Knowing him, you can go to any of the directions to your taste . And the fundamental knowledge that you will master during the modeling training will be with you for years.
Modeling is not as scary as it seems
Myth 1: You need an art education
Forget the myth that you have to be an academic artist to do it. This is not about me, and I have a lot of the same friends. And this never stopped us from modeling for top games and cartoons. nine0022 Of course art education will help you a lot in 3D, but it's not necessary. You don't have to be an artist to start. You will become one as you work.
Myth 2: There are hundreds of complex buttons
Yes, hundreds of them. But 90-95% of them you don't need. Even I, after 15 years of modeling, don't know most of them.
You don't need to know ALL the buttons and functions of the program to assemble a small collage or make photo corrections in Photoshop, or to create a simple spreadsheet in Excel with a graph and auto-sum. nine0022 Everything is the same with modeling! There are hundreds of buttons in the programs just because 3D is big and different: they are needed for animation, rigging, particle simulation, lighting and rendering, and for hundreds of tasks that I have never even heard of! At the same time, the basic functions of the programs, which are only needed for modeling, can be learned in just a few days, and you can immediately start making the first models.
3D is big, but consists of simple things.
It's the same process as putting together an Ikea bed. You need to follow the instructions, and then everything will work out. Your first assembled bed is likely to be crooked, but you'll love it because you put it together yourself (it's called the IKEA Effect, by the way). But with each new collected item, you will learn how to make them quickly and without any problems! nine0003
No need to be afraid of modeling. To start modeling, it is enough to study the basic functions of the programs (at the end of the article there will be a link to a free course about this).
If you are interested in working in 3D, let's see how it usually happens. And right after that, we will go to links to tutorials.
What a 3D modeler's job looks like
There are different types of studios. And different forms of work with them. Find the format that suits you . nine0003
Where to go to work after training?
Go to a studio that makes a game
They are often difficult to hit. Especially in games with cool art directors, because they have plenty to choose from. On the other hand, if you are taken to the team, then at the end of the project you are highly pumped. Inside the studio, as a rule, they make the most complex and most responsible models for the game, although it happens that only the art director with concept artists sits in the office, and all the modelers on outsourcing. nine0003
Who is it for? If you want to be a part of the project and look at its growth and development from the inside, this path is for you.
Work with outsourcing studios
Modern games require so much content that developers hire contractors. This is how large studios are created that bring together dozens of different modelers and work on several projects at once. For example, in St. Petersburg there are studios that simultaneously make 5-6 AAA games at once (sometimes competing with each other) nine0003
Completely different tasks are outsourced. It can be a demanding job: models of the main characters and key items, as well as routine improvements or boring tasks that the developers do not want to do at the head office.
Who is it for? If you love stability , want to work on different projects, or if you have to pay a mortgage.
Go freelancing and work through a manager
Almost the same as working with outsourcing studios, only you sit at home and receive orders from the manager. You are not tied to one studio, but you can work with one or more managers who sometimes offer you a job. If you need money, you can always ask for a job from your manager friends, and they often find it. nine0003
Who is it for? If you are already modeling confidently, love freedom and do not like meetings.
Freelancing solo
You write directly to the developers if they have orders for you. This is an option for those who know how to work independently and efficiently. Without a cool portfolio or acquaintances, getting such a job is not easy, but it is a job without intermediaries.
Who is it for? If you are confident in your portfolio, love freedom, hate meetings, and even more does not like the manager who takes some of the money for himself.
Create models for marketplaces and asset stores
Imagine that you have modeled a cool building constructor. You can put it in the asset store for sale. Actual assets can be sold for several months and bring a good profit.
You can model Dota 2 skins and draw textures for Counter Strike (and other games). There are people who bought a good apartment and a car in this way. A really cool skin can do more than work in a studio, but it's not for everyone. For whom is it suitable? nine0003
For those who are ready to take risks and are ready to work without superiors .
Ultimately, 3D is everywhere!
Due to the variety of directions in 3D and different formats of work, you can choose the occupation that suits you best.

#4. Do 3D
If you want to model quickly, there is only one model.
If you want to model a lot and cool - model in the team.
It is critical that you do not model alone. Participation in any project, even free of charge, takes you to a new level. Moreover, you acquire useful connections and experience! nine0003

#5. Open your eyes and see the world in a new way
Through the eyes of a 3D artist, because now you are a 3D artist! Look around and start noticing and taking pictures of the juiciest references.
Not everyone will see the beauty here, but I can't stop looking at the gorgeous rust spots and all the interior under the torn off bumper.
This fence is uneven. Someone may be indignant, but being able to see and transfer such things in 3D is a very valuable skill.
This house is great for a hundred reasons nine0003
There are almost no parallel lines in this photo. And it's very cool!
Very important reference because it explains how this concrete block works.
