Stolen 3D Models on Sale, What Can Designers Do to Protect Their IP’s? AM Software

A few days ago I spoke with Simone Fontana, who is part of a new generation of 3D designers, born with 3D printing in mind. He pointed out an issue that has been happening for some time but is now reaching worrying proportions: that of stolen 3D designs sold for a profit. How can designers protect themselves and what are the implication of a phenomenon which we could define is basically a form of “person to person IP theft”?

You Know the Companies, Need a Directory of 3D Printers? Go to Aniwaa.com 3D Printer Hardware

The 3D Printing Business Directory was created in order to give companies a map and their own window on the global 3D printing marketplace. At the same time we are happy to collaborate with other companies who specifically focus on areas that are entirely compatible and complementary with our own, for example Aniwaa.com for a directory of 3D printers and 3D scanners.

Simone Fontana (AKA FNTSMN) Unboxes U2Go, Announces INSOMNIA Participation AM Software

3D Printing Media Network partner, professional 3D designer and and well know 3D printing Youtuber Simone Fontana just released a new video on his FNTSMN YouTube Channel. In the video – which you can see below – just ahead of talking the little Ultimaker out of his stylish portable box, Simone also announced that he will be participating – with his 3D Design studio 3DNA – to INSOMNIA58, the UK’s largest gaming festival. Simone, who has made a name for himself for his skills and intuitions in creating realistic 3D printed props from some of the biggest gaming IP’s around, including games from Bethesda and Blizzard, is participating to the event together with CoolerMaster UK. He will be at the PC accessories manufacturer’s stand designing and 3D printing live with his Ultimaker 2+ and the newly arrived Ultimaker 2Go. Sounds like a great way to combine two of 3D’s best applications: the virtual gaming world and the physical desktop additive manufacturing world. Simone was among the very first to see the value that 3D printing can being to videogames and videogame publishers, let’s hope the gaming giants will soon see it as well. Without further ado, check out the little Ultimaker at work in FNTSMN’s latest video
