Description
Browser-based tool to emboss text, graphics, and tactile Braille onto 3D models without heavy CAD. Free, no account, and completely client-side: your model never leaves your device. Inclusive by design: full screen-reader and keyboard navigation for visually impaired makers. AI-agent ready: the accessible UI, paired with Chrome's WebMCP tools, lets a browser agent personalize a model from a text prompt in minutes.

Could you build this?
Partial A web interface for file uploads is straightforward, but client-side CSG (constructive solid geometry) boolean mesh operations to cleanly emboss text onto arbitrary 3D STL topologies is notoriously complex and brittle.
What it would actually take: The technical core requires compiled WebAssembly versions of robust computational geometry libraries (like CGAL, Manifold, or OpenCASCADE) running client-side. The hardest part is handling non-manifold STL meshes, self-intersections, and projecting arbitrary 2D vectors/Braille onto curved, irregular 3D surfaces without crashing browser memory. Requires computational geometry and 3D graphics/Wasm specialization.
