[New post] Edible Chocolate Brains Created From MRI Scan Data

New post on Laughing Squid Edible Chocolate Brains Created From MRI Scan Data by Rusty Blazenhoff The team at 3D technology company Inition has created an Edible Chocolate Brain, a brain-shaped chocolate candy created using sliced data sourced from an MRI scan. Interestingly, the scan data they used was from their co-founder Andy Millins. They put together a great video that shows just how they made it. More information about the project from the Intition blog: The team got to work by first extracting a 3D model from the sliced-image MRI data which was then 3D printed and used to create a latex mould for the casting of the chocolate brain... Andy Millins...said: "I've been involved in some weird and wonderful 3D projects over the years at Inition but eating my own brain was certainly one of the most bizarre!"
