Indian architect Ekaggrat Singh Kalsi recently completed a lighting portrait of his two-year old daughter using 3D printing technology, according to a 3D Print.com report.
For the project, Kalsi used a set of colored LED lights, camera, and a 3D printing machine that traced 3D objects by applying filament.
He had his daughter’s image professionally scanned, and produced Gcode for multiple angles of the face model. After working with 10 different angles, he built a rotating GIF file of the scan. He also custom script in Grasshoper 3D he wrote that is capable of taking any 3D model and converting it to the Gcode, which controls the path the LED follows and turns light source on and off.
Kalis’s NIKON D3100 camera was set for long exposure to take photographs, and he also made the image of the painting in real time via video.
The Indian architect’s 3D printed images first came under the lime light in June 2014. Kalsi is a Project Architect at Santec (Burt Hill) and a graduate of the School of Architecture at CEPT University in Ahmedabad, India.
