Remember Spark? The Autodesk software and fund born to seamlessly integrate 3D printing into AM processes and CAD software? While the overall structure has now been absorbed into other projects like Netfabb and Fusion 360, the experience and vision live on in many other ways. One is Bots101, an online platform, now open for beta access, created by former Autodesk Spark exects and developers. I caught up with Eyal Nir, co-founder of BOTS101, who showed me exactly how far bots and artificial intelligence could go in helping more people create 3D content for AR, VR and – of course – 3D printing.
Create it REAL secured a 3D print pilot project with Green Ship of the Future consortium in Denmark. The project is part of the Green Ship of the Future project portfolio: The maritime opportunity space of 3D print, and specifically explores onboard printing and related challenges in the current supply chain, as well as existing technology. Accordingly, the partners represent the majority of the supply chain around spare parts and include J. Lauritzen, Maersk Line, Maersk Tankers, Maersk Drilling, MAN Diesel & Turbo, DNV GL, Copenhagen Business School and Create it real. The project is financed by the Danish Maritime Fund.
