Introduction

This Blender plugin generates a random arrangement of particles with a blue noise distribution. This is also known as Poisson Disk Sampling.

This distribution of particles guarantees no two particles are very near each other. It's often considered a higher quality particle arrangement than Blender's default uniform sampling. It's particularly useful for organic arrangements, and randomly arranging meshes without collisions.

The particular method of noise generation is called Sample Elimination for Poisson Disk Sample Sets.

Refer to the tutorial for some instructions on how to use the plugin, and the gallery for some examples of what is possible.
