Is there software that turns an uploaded/created arbitrary 3D shape into 2D creases on a rectangular sheet needed to create it?

- taneq 9y agoThere are definitely algorithms for UV unwrapping of polygonal models onto texture maps, under various constraints. I'm sure you could persuade one of those to generate you a net from a 3D model. Here's an instructible on it: http://www.instructables.com/id/Design-Papercrafts-with-CAD-software/ http://www.instructables.com/id/Design-Papercrafts-with-CAD-...
