Richard Clarkson of the Victoria University of Wellington's School of Design in New Zealand has used an objet machine to combine material to create inflatable prints.
faBrickation is a software system that replaces less important parts to prototype 3D prints, meaning quicker assembly, money saved on material and being beneficial to the environment.
The Dutch firm's "printoptical" process has received millions in investment recently, we talk to Richard about his technology which was born of frustration with the current state of the manufacturing of optics.
Those Dutch are at it again, being all creative and brilliant at 3D printing. The Dutch Embassy in the USA have launched a competition in partnership with Shapeways.
The online creation platform is constantly adding to its list of customisable products, all 3D printed. The latest addition to the Mixee family is bobblehead figurines.
