Research from Carnegie Mellon Textiles Lab have put forward a framework to turn 3D model file into a physical knitted object:
We present the first computational approach that can transform 3D meshes, created by traditional modeling programs, directly into instructions for a computer-controlled knitting machine. Knitting machines are able to robustly and repeatably form knitted 3D surfaces from yarn, but have many constraints on what they can fabricate. Given user-defined starting and ending points on an input mesh, our system incrementally builds a helix-free, quad-dominant mesh with uniform edge lengths, runs a tracing procedure over this mesh to generate a knitting path, and schedules the knitting instructions for this path in a way that is compatible with machine constraints. We demonstrate our approach on a wide range of 3D meshes.

Latest AR exhibition from MoMAR (who ran a guerilla show earlier this year) returns to the Pollock Room at MoMA New York featuring works by David Kraftsow, responsible for the YouTube Artififacts bot that regularly generates animated images from distorted videos:
Welcome to The Age of the Algorithm. A world in which automated processes are no longer simply tools at our disposal, but the single greatest omnipresent force currently shaping our world. For the most part, they remain unseen. Going about their business, mimicking human behavior and making decisions based on statistical analysis of what they ‘think’ is right. If the role of art in society is to incite reflection and ask questions about the state of our world, can algorithms be a part of determining and defining people’s artistic and cultural values? MoMAR presents a series of eight pieces created by David Kraftsow’s YouTube Artifact Bot.

Currently being installed in Times Square, Radius Displays have created a shape changing screen made from an array of motorized panels:

There is very little information to find about the project, other than it is currently installed and testing and officially launching soon - the best bet is to keep an eye on Instagram here
It will make an official debut on August the 8th [Link]
The always-fantastic Art & Tech resource Creative Applications have put together their list of highlights from the year:
As 2017 comes to a close, we take a moment to look back at the outstanding work done this year. From spectacular performances, large scale installations, devices and tools to the new virtual spaces for artistic exploration – so many great projects are being added to the CAN archive! Here are a just few, 25 in total, that we and you enjoyed the most this year.

Japanese developers are creating mobile apps incorporating Augmented Reality for photographic tricks, from free floating object placements to optical camo effects:
[Google Translate:]
I tried to develop a demonstration using ARkit that makes it possible to take movies like MATOX like the cheat technique “The World” used by DIO in the third part of “Joji O’s Strange Adventure” It was. I hope to be able to respond to Google ARCore in the future.

Say what you want about the animation, but they did add a lot of little cute details in the romances.
Apple Patents for Automatic 3D Avatar Creation and Emotional States
Something to expect in the future in regards to online identity (both of which were filed today):
A three-dimensional (“3D”) avatar can be automatically created that resembles the physical appearance of an individual captured in one or more input images or video frames. The avatar can be further customized by the individual in an editing environment and used in various applications, including but not limited to gaming, social networking and video conferencing.
I wonder if this will be connected to Apple’s purchase of depth sensor company Primesense [Link to patent file]
Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for creating and using customized avatar instances to reflect current user states are disclosed. In various implementations, the user states can be defines using trigger events based on user-entered textual data, emoticons, or states of the device being used. For each user state, a customized avatar instance having a facial expression, body language, accessories, clothing items, and/or a presentation scheme reflective of the user state can be generated.
