Leopoly, an online 3D playground
Pioneer of breakthrough 3D interactive tools, Leonar3Do have debuted their online playground for 3D creation here at CES.
Leopoly is an easy way to enter and enjoy the world of 3D creation. It is deliberately designed to meet the needs of masses entering 3D modeling and printing. Leopoly provides an early training ground to introduce 3D creation and skills development in creativity, sculpturing, colors, and design. For other creative makers and innovators, it provides an easy to use step into the 3D ecosystem that will unleash a whole new wave of apps, commercial 3D design templates, printing channels, business models, and new products and services. Leonar3Do will be showcasing Leopoly in LVCC South Hall within the 3D Printing TechZone, booth # 31828.
Akin to playing with Play Dough, Leopoly is easy, fun, and further extends the experience only with new possibilities for users, including the ability to shape, mold, publish, share or 3D print their design in no time. Even more, users can store all of their designs online and come back anytime to continue reshaping them at any point. Leopoly is aimed at young aspiring 3D and digital designers and ‘makers’ who want to hone their creative minds and 3D design, sculpting, and visualization skills. They can also be part of a creative maker community to share ideas, engage in creative collaboration, get inspired, or inspire others. Leopoly is compatible with a user’s own 3D printer, or with 1-click, users can send their 3D object to be printed by way of a partnership with 3D printing service company Sculpteo. To provide its customers with a broad range of choices, Leopoly plans to expand its partnerships with additional companies in the 3D print industry.
Unlike other 3D sculpting tools that have to be downloaded, then mastered, yet still remain confined to an individual’s desktop, Leopoly’s cloud-based offering combines the following:
· Easy to use 3D sculpting tools,
· An online social community enabling collaborative creation,
· Fastest growing 3D library, now more than 15,000 ready-to-use 3D designs and objects, which can also be further shaped, colored and personalized, and
· Personalized online community pages.
Leopoly’s 3D creative playground is especially well suited for schools and students, where educators can expose students early on to hone their skills, gain a competitive edge in the job market, and seize opportunities in the budding 3D economy that is taking root. With the debut of Leopoly, Leonar3Do demonstrates its commitment to elevate learning beyond traditional 2D approaches.
The growing trend in the ‘personalization of goods’ is fueling the 3D boom, whereby people can now turn their ideas into actual products -- from a better mousetrap, to an improved prosthetic limb, to a custom lunchbox for kids. Like other online industries demonstrated millions of consumers will become “Prosumers” and challenge traditional manufacturers with their own personalized goods, from household products, to electronics, toys, jewelry and others.. The catalyst behind this budding new ecosystem, 3D design and printing technology has demonstrated the ability to accelerate the prototyping and manufacturing of seemingly anything and will drive large-scale market disruption of traditional manufacturing processes and supply chains.
