A four-dimensional product (4D product) considers a physical product as a life-like entity capable of changing form and physical properties autonomously over time. It is an evolving field of product design practice and research linked to similar concepts at the material scale (programmable matter and four-dimensional printing), however, typically utilizes sensors and actuators in order to ...
Stereolithography is a 3D-printing technique that uses photopolymerization to bind substrate that has been laid layer upon layer, creating a polymeric network. As opposed to fused-deposition modeling, where the extruded material hardens immediately to form layers, 4D printing is fundamentally based in stereolithography, where in most cases ultraviolet light is used to cure the layered ...
SO(4) is commonly identified with the group of orientation-preserving isometric linear mappings of a 4D vector space with inner product over the real numbers onto itself. With respect to an orthonormal basis in such a space SO(4) is represented as the group of real 4th-order orthogonal matrices with determinant +1.
In computer science, a 4D vector is a 4-component vector data type. Uses include homogeneous coordinates for 3-dimensional space in computer graphics , and red green blue alpha ( RGBA ) values for bitmap images with a color and alpha channel (as such they are widely used in computer graphics).
The tesseract is one of 6 convex regular 4-polytopes. In mathematics, a regular 4-polytope or regular polychoron is a regular four-dimensional polytope.They are the four-dimensional analogues of the regular polyhedra in three dimensions and the regular polygons in two dimensions.
Four-dimensional space (4D) is the mathematical extension of the concept of three-dimensional space (3D). Three-dimensional space is the simplest possible abstraction of the observation that one needs only three numbers, called dimensions, to describe the sizes or locations of objects in the everyday world.
4D, a 2010 album by Matthew Shipp "4-D" (The X-Files), an episode of The X-Files; 4D Audio Recording system, an audio recording system developed by Deutsche Grammophon; 4D film, a high technology film experience augmented with physical or environmental effects; 4DTV, a satellite TV broadcasting technology from Motorola; 4DX, a 4D film format
4D (4th Dimension, or Silver Surfer, as it was known during early development) is a relational database management system and integrated development environment developed by Laurent Ribardière. [3] 4D was created in 1984 [4] and had a slightly delayed public release for Macintosh in 1987 [5] [6] [7] with its own programming language. [1]
