The ability to recognize patterns in a set of noisy data is similar whether it’s through audio, images, video, electrical pulses, financial data, or many other signals. The mathematical representation of these data is called a tensor (think of it as a matrix containing other matrices).

Using hand gestures, he manipulated a 3D virtual object and sent it to a 3D printer, where it was fabricated in titanium. Though it was largely a demonstration, it gave an early glimpse of what modern 3D industrial design could be. Fast-forward a couple of years, and Ford Motor Company’s immersive vehicle laboratory started to demo how they design

Six years later, I built my own similar workshop for a few hundred dollars, with a staff of zero. I bought an Oculus Quest from Best Buy, downloaded some CAD software, bought a 3D printer from Amazon, and built an IoT service connecting the two by following a YouTube video. I have no experience in CAD, no training in electronics, nor fabrication. I
