A discussion of machine learning is had (so if you are able to contribute, be sure to get in touch).Ī PDF of the presentation can be downloaded from: Scripting has also been used to build words and fonts out of LEGO. Pennyforge also covers scripting and touches upon the opensource nature of ldraw, underpinning all this digital LEGO building. Neil gives an overview of taking a traditional 3D model and converting it to real LEGO via voxel data. Other software touched upon includes Blender, MLCad, Modo, Sketchup and Maya Neil discusses LEGO modelling, rendering and instruction creation comparing current software tools such as LEGO Digital Designer, Bricklinks Stud.io and LDCad. In this video interview Neil Marsden aka Pennyforge presents a primer masterclass on virtual/digital LEGO building (originally presented at London AFOLs April 2020).
