libfive is a software library and set of tools for solid modeling, especially suited for parametric and procedural design. It is infrastructure for generative design, mass customization, and domain-specific CAD tools.
A simple open-source scene manager, and WavefrontOBJ file loader in C# and OpenGL (OpenTK). Runs on MacOS, Windows, and Linux.; Author: David Jeske; Updated: 27 Dec 2014; Section: OpenGL; Chapter: Multimedia; Updated: 27 Dec 2014
Cornell researchers are taking 3-D printing and 3-D modeling to a new level by using augmented reality (AR) to allow designers to design in physical space while a robotic arm rapidly prints the work.
Well we're just going to file this one under "one of the coolest things we've seen so far this year." An artist has been looking at everyday household items,

- Silo is a focused and lightning-fast standalone 3D modeler. Its deep modeling and UV mapping toolset has made it a favorite of pros for making game assets, movie characters, and objects for 3D printing.
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey has created the most detailed three-dimensional maps of the Universe ever made, with deep multi-color images of one third of the sky, and spectra for more than three million astronomical objects.
Since 1971, the Protein Data Bank archive (PDB) has served as the single repository of information about the 3D structures of proteins, nucleic acids, and complex assemblies.
The Worldwide PDB (wwPDB) organization manages the PDB archive and ensures that the PDB is freely and publicly available to the global community.
