The 3D printed items of clothing have been completely experimental and not for sale, however this 3D printed bikini is wearable and available to buy.\u00a0<em>\u201cThe bikini&#8217;s design fundamentally reflects the beautiful intricacy possible with 3D printing, as well as the technical challenges of creating a flexible surface out of the solid nylon. Thousands of circular plates are connected by thin springs, creating a wholly new material that holds its form as well as being flexible. The layout of the circle pattern was achieved through custom written code that lays out the circles according to the curvature of the surface. In this way, the aesthetic design is completely derived from the structural design.\u201d &#8211;\u00a0<\/em>Mary Haung, Continuum Fashion.<\/p>\n<p>Within the patterning of the 3D bikini, geometry is utilized to point out mathematical specifics for the circles. The pattern process starts off with a curved surface where the circles are placed with in the borders of the bathing suit. The placement of these circles are in a manner where they reach as close to the edges as they can and their sizes are specifically engineered so that the allow that and fit the confined degree of curvature. The areas with a larger degree of curviness receive smaller circles than relatively flatter areas that receive larger circles. Furthermore guaranteeing elasticity and efficiency where necessary.<\/p>\n<p>The main objective behind the circle pattering is allowing the system availability to any surface and any size. Moreover the same algorithm can be used to produce other types of 3D printed clothing and even more it can be customized for a specific person with the use of a body scan to specify the fitting.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/ruthtrumpold.id.au\/blogs\/designtech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/bikini_curves299_shapeways.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1469\" alt=\"bikini_curves299_shapeways\" src=\"http:\/\/ruthtrumpold.id.au\/blogs\/designtech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/bikini_curves299_shapeways-300x153.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"153\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ruthtrumpold.id.au\/blogs\/designtech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/bikini_curves299_shapeways-300x153.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ruthtrumpold.id.au\/blogs\/designtech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/bikini_curves299_shapeways-500x256.jpg 500w, https:\/\/ruthtrumpold.id.au\/blogs\/designtech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/bikini_curves299_shapeways.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/ruthtrumpold.id.au\/blogs\/designtech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/both_seams_shapeways.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1470\" alt=\"both_seams_shapeways\" src=\"http:\/\/ruthtrumpold.id.au\/blogs\/designtech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/both_seams_shapeways-300x245.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"245\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ruthtrumpold.id.au\/blogs\/designtech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/both_seams_shapeways-300x245.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ruthtrumpold.id.au\/blogs\/designtech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/both_seams_shapeways-500x409.jpg 500w, https:\/\/ruthtrumpold.id.au\/blogs\/designtech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/both_seams_shapeways.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/ruthtrumpold.id.au\/blogs\/designtech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/n12_white_macro_shapeways.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1472\" alt=\"n12_white_macro_shapeways\" src=\"http:\/\/ruthtrumpold.id.au\/blogs\/designtech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/n12_white_macro_shapeways-300x200.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ruthtrumpold.id.au\/blogs\/designtech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/n12_white_macro_shapeways-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ruthtrumpold.id.au\/blogs\/designtech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/n12_white_macro_shapeways-500x333.jpg 500w, https:\/\/ruthtrumpold.id.au\/blogs\/designtech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/n12_white_macro_shapeways.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/ruthtrumpold.id.au\/blogs\/designtech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/n12_bikini_shapeways.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1474\" alt=\"n12_bikini_shapeways\" src=\"http:\/\/ruthtrumpold.id.au\/blogs\/designtech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/n12_bikini_shapeways-200x300.jpg\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ruthtrumpold.id.au\/blogs\/designtech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/n12_bikini_shapeways-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/ruthtrumpold.id.au\/blogs\/designtech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/n12_bikini_shapeways.jpg 310w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The bikini is named after the material in which it is 3d printed which is Nylon 12 (N12).
