3D printing

3DPrinter

This project will explore applications of 3d printing. One project might be to develop an app to generate a 3D model from a cellphone photo and print solid objects using the Makerbot 3D printer in the Garage, or other tools in the WID rapid prototyping facility http://www.prototype.wisc.edu/ .
