Braille Labeler Receives Cool Idea! Award from Proto Labs
|
The latest deserving idea to receive the Proto Labs Cool Idea! Award, is a Braille labeler by Silicon Valley-based innovation laboratory 6dot. The labeler aims to solve a persistent challenge among the 37 million people around the world without sight: identifying everyday objects. To a blind person, navigating familiar environments can be a tremendous obstacle, as objects such as cans of food (is it chicken soup or dog food?) and medicine containers can feel indistinguishable from each other. 6dot’s labeler uses an embossing mechanism to create adhesive labels with Braille characters to help people without sight maneuver more easily in their environments.

Parametric or Direct Modeling, One or the Other, or Both?
Here are a few reasons why combining parametric and direct CAD offer benefits to you, your team, and the products you create.
There are a few differences between parametric and direct modeling. The parametric paradigm provides an “engineer it” approach to design which requires you to anticipate and define feature constraints, relations, and dependencies to ensure that any design modification will update all related downstream geometry in a predefined way.
