===== Assignment =====
Use software to obtain a body-figure and a digital fabrication process to produce it (the production happens in groups of 3-4)
* document use of a 3D scanner to acquire a model
* document repair of 3D model mesh
* experimented with the combination of milling, laser cutting, vacuum forming and composites
* built your own mannequin
* include all the files in the documentation
===== Scanning =====
For the scanning, I used the Sense scanner. I decided to scan my torso and my head, so I can put some garments on the head like hats, crowns ;)
First choose Person, then head…

This is my [[https://cad.onshape.com/documents/e728f94511b4894ad230a7ed/w/653cc68951d428f4c08d8454/e/6bc3c78f9fc854f50e2f7c91|scan]] with Sense, and could downloaded with .ply extension and save all the colors.

===== Preparing the scanning to Digital Fabrication =====
Once my torso was scanned, I imported the .stl file into //Slicer for Fusion 360. //But I noticed that it is a very huge file, so, I reduced it with //[[https://www.meshmixer.com/|Meshmixer]]//
//{{ :fabricademy2017:students:nuria.robles:week_2:meshmixer.png?nolink&750x406 }}//
After exporting a new ligther stl, i Imported it from //[[https://www.autodesk.com/products/fusion-360/overview|Slicer for fusion 360 ]]//and adjust the settings as Size of the machine, width os the material and construction technique, I selected the interlocked slices for the manequin

After generating the patterns, you can download to .EPS, .PDF or .DXF . I downloaded then in .DXG with the following settings:

And finally, proceeded to the building of the manequin:

==== Group Project ====
As part of the group project, we decided to make [[http://fabacademy.org/archives/2015/eu/students/nachtigall.troy_robert/ComputerControlledCutting.html|Troy's]] Manequin using polypropilene as material. The design file was adapted and can be downloaded [[https://drive.google.com/open?id=1ATftv05Fe3Y63Z4q7MNdJv_V59H-7zJ5|here]].
