This project explores innovative techniques for laser cutting arbitrary shapes in fabrication, presented by Vincent Nivoliers and Sylvain Lefebvre at ALICE/INRIA. We address common challenges such as minimizing material usage, managing costs per square meter and perimeter length, and the cost-quality trade-off. The focus is on simplifying complex 3D shapes using the Hough transform on planes to optimize storage and display. Can we apply these methodologies to streamline fabrication processes effectively? Our approach could revolutionize design and production in virtual and physical spaces.

Minimizingmatter • Packing (verycommonproblem) • Cost by square meter • Cuttinglength • Cost by perimeterlength Cost / qualitytrade-off ?
Meanwhile in the virtualspace … • Complex 3D shapes are expensive • Many triangles large storage • Many triangles slow display • How to simplify?
