Artificial Eyes, Hyperrealistic Sculpture, 3D Modeling, 3D PrintingAbstract
The creation of human-like eyes has been a goal historically pursued from different fields of knowledge, evidenced by the many technical advances achieved in this field in disciplines as diverse as ophthalmology, sculpture, robotics, toy industry or special effects in film. Currently, the popularization of new 3D printing technologies has made possible the development of new workflows in hyperrealistic sculpture for the production of artificial eyes. The aim of this study was to analyze through a case study the advantages of using a mixed approach, incorporating traditional and digital techniques, oriented to the manufacture of resin eyes for figurative sculpture. The results obtained using this methodology have been fully satisfactory. The artificial eyes created have an extraordinary resemblance to humans and reflect the small volumetric and chromatic details with a greater precision than that which can be achieved using only artisanal techniques. The main conclusion of this work is that the use of 3D modeling and printing technologies can be useful to speed up the process of making these anatomical structures and improve their reliability as well as the repeatability and quality of the results.
