3D printing has already a huge impact on architecture and on contructions. This new technology makes it easy for designers to experiment with shapes and geometries, in a way they couldn’t until now. Watch an interesting application in concreate spahing by large scale 3d printer BigRep ONE:
Hightech-robotics
Roboticists and robot makers who used to be constrained by the existing off-the-shelf parts, they can now design and print their own parts and shells, making all the modifications they have dreamed real!
