Tinkerplay
With the explosion of 3D printing, being able to create all kinds of figures, parts and elements with plastic materials and resins at home, where it is only necessary to get hold of one of the many variables of 3D printers (some of them quite expensive), all that remained was to remove from the equation the idea of being ablecreate any of these parts comfortably A job that no one else could do but Autodesk, company well known for engineers, architects and creators of plans and parts thanks to its editing programs .Of course, on this occasion, the thing is focused to the smallest of the house.
And this company has just released Tinkerplay An application for mobile devices focused on creation and design of all kinds of parts for toys Elements that allow to develop the imagination to unsuspected levels by offering tools to create all kinds of figures, articulated dolls and toys with a very marked personal touch. Parts and plans that can be sent to your own 3D printer to transform into reality that toy that until now was only in the imagination or on a digital plane. Although it also has tools within the application to enjoy the model created without having to bring it to reality
In Tinkerplay the user has a powerful creation tool with hundreds of predesigned pieces that fit perfectly together. In this way there are heads, torsos, limbs, legs, weapons, wings, tails”¦ issues that allow you to create pieces such as animals , robots, superheroes and other predefined models, but always with the possibility of exchanging pieces freely And, by fitting some with others with a simple articulation system, only the creativity of the user sets the limits. Something that allows you to create simple figures or true works of engineering with all kinds of parts.
But the possibilities of this editor do not end here. Along with the option to create all kinds of figures is the option to customize each piece Thus it is not only possible to choose the color of each of them, but also their shape and texturesSomething that allows to create unique works and dolls. In addition, it also has guides and tutorials for the first steps, teaching users to assemble predetermined figures and understand the operation of the application.
Once the piece has been created with all the desired customizations, the Tinkerplay application offers two possibilities. One of them is to download in a STL or .thing file the plans for printing, taking them to a computer connected to a 3D printer to make the figure come true. The other option is to play with it directly in the application And it offers the possibility of setting up different environments to create some type of pose or portray the figure ccreated in a suitable environment. Something that offers the enjoyment of this application even when a 3D printer is not available.
In short, a tool specially designed for the little ones, although it can be enjoyed by those who are not so young. All this triggering creativity by offering all kinds of pieces and creative freedom. But the best part is that Tinkerplay is available free for all major mobile platforms: Android, iOS and Windows PhoneIn addition to computers Windows Can be downloaded from Google Play, App Store, Windows Phone Store and Windows Store
