It seems that 3D printing is already such a part of society that there is already a museum in Beijing.
China opens world’s first 3D printing museum
On Jan 15th China unveiled the world’s first 3D printing museum at Beijing’s DRC Industrial Design and Creative Industry Base.
Visitors will now be able to experience just what this amazing technology can create. Anyone curious about 3D printing should get themselves along where they can have their entire body scanned. Multi-dimensional data is then stored and processed which after several hours ends up as a physical mini life like sculpture for the mantelpiece.
And it’s not just yourself you can print either! Cans, vases, shoes, dolls and iPhone cases and more are all available for printing too.
Along with the news that Staples are soon to be offering 3D printing in some of their European stores, 2013 could be remembered as the year 3D printing took the public stage.
So cool
OH
this is so cool!
I bet they would be interested in some of the 3-D printed planes we create at Embry-Riddle.
