How to Create a 3D Heart Shape in MATLAB | MATLAB Tutorial | Create 3D Heart shape in Matlab

In this tutorial, I will walk you through step by step on how to create a 3D heart shape in MATLAB using simple yet powerful techniques like isosurface plotting. Following along with me, you will learn to define an implicit function for a heart, create a 3D grid using meshgrid, and then visualize the heart shape with smooth lighting and colors in MATLAB. For every beginner and advanced user out there, you will get all your needed tools in this tutorial using the MATLAB software, from which you can easily design 3D plots to bring mathematic equations into live.

Creating 3D in MATLAB opens an arena for data visualization and creative work with code. With this project, you not only learn the process of 3D plotting in MATLAB but also how to use patch and isosurface, which are key functions used in rendering complex 3D models. Also, it covers important customizations like colors, lighting techniques, and creating axes so your plot actually looks professional.

This video includes:

Creating a 3D grid with meshgrid for plotting 3D shapes.
The heart shape equation that defines the 3D heart surface.
Using the isosurface function to extract and plot the 3D heart.
Adding beautiful lighting effects using lighting gouraud and camlight to make the heart appear smooth and realistic.
Customizing the appearance by setting the heart’s color to red and removing the edges for a clean visualization.
Adjusting the axes for an aesthetically pleasing and well-structured plot.
If you want to explore more complex 3D shapes or data visualization techniques in MATLAB, this tutorial is a great starting point. By the end of this video, you’ll have created a stunning solid 3D heart that can be used for Valentine’s Day projects, gifts, or just for fun! This project demonstrates the creative possibilities in MATLAB 3D plotting.
