Pixels of the same color can be group and merged into money saving bricks.īelow is an example of one Side View pixel method I'm currently working on. So, when using Side View, 3 Plates = 1 Brick. Speaking of counting, it will also help to know your LEGO Math here. PS does has a pixelation filter, and outside the program there are LEGO mosaic makers, but this interesting quirk breaks a solid image into pieces, where with minimum time and effort, a more precise stud length can be quickly counted out. I'm sure there are many other methods within and outside this specific graphic program to aid us in our build. Take your LEGO Technic experience to a new level of realism: Get a uniquely designed experience for each LEGO® Technic CONTROL+ model. Well, anyway, the magnifying function is clearly not intended to brick out an outline, but it works well here. Note: A 2x2 plate stacked on a 2x2 brick makes a nice a square also,īut this will increase the size of our creation. 1) Top View pixel creation - Where the scale is a perfect 1:1.Ģ) Side View pixel creation - Where two 1x1 plates stacked on top each.I use the PS squares created in two main ways: PS breaks the image down into nice square shaped pixels. The app uses AI technology to scan your cluttered collection of LEGO components and give you customizable suggestions on what to build from them. We can get really creative and exploit functions of programs never intended to be used for MOC bricking.Įnter: Adobe Photoshop - PS's main role is a visual graphic editor, but it does something strange if an image is magnified past 400%. The system counted 150 pieces this time, but the app gave no suggested builds.The kinds of software used to design LEGO MOC doesn't necessarily have to be solely confined to Computer Aided Design programs. We weeded out the bad pieces and scanned again. So I enlisted his help, and did that weird parent thing where you sometimes have to ask permission of your own child to dump much of the bin onto the floor. (Brickit doesn’t claim to identify special Lego sets like Technic or anything else you might own). But the app simply identified all the things it couldn’t understand: Lego rail track, some other specialized pieces, and a few non-Lego toys. Right on his desk sits an omnipresent tub of loose Lego, a rainbow graveyard full of the limbs of Harry Potter minifigs and other studded detritus.įirst, I tried to take a picture of the tub. To test the app, I knew just the place: the room of my 7-year-old. With your collection cataloged, the app offers specific building plans-like vehicles and animals-that you can build with the pieces you have right in front of you.
With Brickit, all you do is take a picture of your pile, and it uses object recognition to identify the specific brick types you have. Modern Lego is so much more complicated than its classic three-by-six bricks the company produces thousands of different styles of pieces today.
