What Is 3D Modeling and What Is It Used For?

From Imagination to Reality with 3D Modeling!

Many people have heard of 3D modeling but may not know exactly what it is, so we’re here to help! The versatile and transformative capabilities of 3D modeling have been seen in various fields, including healthcare, animation, movie making, architecture, manufacturing, and more.

What is 3D Modeling?

At its core, 3D modeling refers to using digital technologies to create three-dimensional objects. These objects may remain in the digital realm, or, with the use of a 3D printer, could become real-world objects. This is what makes 3D modeling valuable for the future of robotics. Using this technique, researchers and designers will be able to build better futuristic robots, and easily create parts when needed.

While this all sounds very high-tech, kids can have fun engaging with 3D modeling concepts and technologies. At Engineering For Kids^®, we offer a range of programs and activities that help kids understand the importance of 3D modeling.
