In the world of 3D printing, there’s a trend to have low poly versions of models. Admittedly, the faceted blocky forms are fairly appealing. However, making a low poly model can be a bit of a torturous activity.
Andrew Sink, a senior applications engineer in additive manufacturing, came up with a system that makes it a breeze. Simply upload your file to this browser based tool, fiddle with the sliders, and download your low-poly styled result.
The whole thing is open source, built using Three.js JavaScript library. You can find all the source code on Github if you’re interested.
