3D printer is a revolutionized concept that has the potential to change the world one print at a time.
The way this technology is bending and re-writing the rules right now, one can only wonder how this technology will transform in the future. Contrary to the popular belief that 3D printers are relatively new concept, 3D printing tech is being developed and explored since the 1980s. Dr Kodama was the first to describe a layer by layer approach for manufacturing through his development of a rapid prototyping technique in 1980. Infact, the main technologies that 3D printer, run on today were patented way back in the 90s. But due to some patent issues the growth for 3D technology has been a bit stunted until now. Now some previous licenses and patents have expired and a free pathway for 3D has been created.
Currently, 3D printing has been employed in a lot of fields, varying from aviation to healthcare. And also 3D printing is also used to commercially manufacture cameras. From lenses to body parts of the camera, everything has been experimented with, and hence the whole photography word is excited to see how this technology is going to drive the art form.
3D Printing Cameras and Camera parts (Even the lenses!)
3D printing is now being tinkered with to a level where artists, mostly photographers are printing their own cameras. They are not only printing the mechanical parts but also the lens along with other complex instruments. This technology has enabled photographers to envision a camera with specifications that are according to their needs and desires. This also means that if people can print their own cameras, then the pricing of the cameras might just come down. We have found a few people around the world who have delved deep into this and have already developed fully functional cameras.
