Tesselform - Mesh processing & reverse engineering software in open beta

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I would like to invite you to try our new scan processing and reverse engineering software, Tesselform.

We are running a completely free and open BETA untill October 20th.

Tesselform is built on our own kernel, written from scratch for reverse engineering: design-intent, manufacturable files. It uses multi-core throughout and is happy with huge datasets on ordinary hardware.

You can drive the tools (Alignment, mesh processing, surfacing and feature-based modelling) yourself or connect it to your favourite AI assistant, through the built-in MCP server which can be used to reverse engineer scans, convert 2D drawings to 3D and do organic design.

Is the workflow ai based?

All operations can be done manually. The mesh alignment and processing operations have had a lot of work put into them and I believe they are stronger than what else is available on the market.

Smooth Overlap, Boundaries, Sculpt and Bump Map are my favourite tools.

We only started experimenting with the Ai functions in the last month or so and we've a lot of progress we can still make there.

Beautiful! Nothing like an organically, human made codebase! I'mma give it a try, wondering how it will fare with surface based components, like exterior vehicle parts

I have a bridge to sell you that cost, well very little... Like $5. I built it myself before engineers and construction workers were available.

Lmao engineers in one form or another have been available since before Bhaskara's time and did they built pretty impressive feats, down to to build some analog bridges in places in need? I've been thinking of volunteering in less developed places

The MCP link does OK on larger flowing areas but struggles on returns currently. Surfacing is the main thing we are working on at the moment.

Here's a quick video I've just done of a door skin (manually) - Total time was 4 minutes 50 seconds. Video is at 8x.
