3D Voronoi Generator compared with Autodesk Meshmixer, Blender and Rhino Grasshopper| 3डी वोरोनोई जनरेटर | Autodesk Meshmixer | Blender | Rhino Grasshopper |
|---|
| Workflow: You upload a mesh and download a tessellated version, which takes about a minute. The site states it uses Admesh, Stltools, MeshLab, Blender and VTK behind the scenes. You do not build the pattern yourself. | Workflow: A desktop tool for triangle meshes with patterns, lattices, interior tubes or channels, hollowing, remeshing, booleans, offsets and print support structures. | Workflow: A 3D creation suite with a Python API, so it can be scripted for geometry tasks. | Workflow: A graphical algorithm editor included with Rhino, where form-generation algorithms are built from components without programming. Scripting in C# and Python is also supported. |
| इनपुट और आउटपुट: Accepts stl, stla, stlb, ply, off, obj, dae and 3ds. Delivers PLY (recommended) or the larger STL. Uploads are capped at 20 MB. | | | |
| Parameters and control: Only a few settings: fewer, standard or more holes, and a new layer thickness of plane only, thinner, standard or thicker. Plane only gives a non-manifold mesh that cannot be printed. | Parameters and control: Many editing tools, applied by hand on the mesh. | Parameters and control: Parametrisation is possible through its scripting API. | Parameters and control: Fully parametric, since algorithms are defined by the user and can be adapted. |
| प्लेटफ़ॉर्म और स्थापना: Browser service. Nothing to install, but the model is uploaded to the service. Check confidentiality before sending proprietary geometry, as the site links a separate privacy page. | प्लेटफ़ॉर्म और स्थापना: Installed application, with a custom installer. | प्लेटफ़ॉर्म और स्थापना: Installed application on a local computer. | प्लेटफ़ॉर्म और स्थापना: Runs inside Rhino, which is available for Windows and macOS. |
| Cost and status: उपयोग करने के लिए निःशुल्क। | Cost and status: Free, but no longer in development. Autodesk says it will not be supported moving forward, yet has no plans to retire it, and recommends Fusion for many of its mesh features. | Cost and status: Free and open source under the GNU GPL. | Cost and status: Included with a Rhino licence. The vendor states there are no maintenance or subscription fees. |
