10 MUST SEE Speakers and Exhibits at the 2014 London 3D Printshow

The 2014 London 3D Printshow is approaching, fast! Starting on September 4th, it promises to be one of the biggest 3D Printing events of the year.

i.materialise will join exhibitors that include Adobe, Autodesk, and 3Doodler directly in the heart of London, deep inside the vaulted, Victorian halls of the historic Old Billingsgate building (click here for directions.) We hope to connect with you there! Our outreach team will be on hand to answer your 3D printing questions.

We are also giving two of our very own presentations on:

  • Friday 05, 2014 at the Open Stage
  • Saturday 06, 2014 at the Open Stage

Events

Knowledge Bar

Presented in association with 3D printing industry news blog Fabbaloo, the Knowledge Bar gives impartial answers to any and  all  3D printing questions. From materials to costs to “which printer is right for you,” The Knowledge Bar is here to help you make informed decisions about 3D printing. Incidentally, it is also the most “connected” booth in the entire convention. If you’re lost, bored, or just want to know which parts of the Printshow align with your interests, be sure to ask Fabbaloo’s very own Marney and Kerry!

Time and Date: Ongoing throughout the London 2014 Printshow.

See art by Sophie Kahn at the London 3D Printshow!

Sculpture by Sophie Kahn. This is not a render.

Sophie Kahn’s Digital Sculpture Exhibt

Award-winning Sculptor, New York Foundation for the Arts Digital and Electronic Arts Fellow.

Sophie Kahn’s work is unlike any other sculpting you may have seen. She combines innovative means of production (i.e. 3D laser scanning and 3D printing) with ancient bronze casting techniques made from using damaged 3D data. The result are old-fashioned sculptures that appear as touchable, real-life “error files.” Her artwork has been  exhibited in New York, Los Angeles, Paris, Sydney, Tokyo, Osaka, Seoul… and her return to London is a much-anticipated, can’t miss event!

Topic Name: Passionate About 3D Printing But Can’t Do CAD

Summary: This talk covers how a haptics, touch-based 3D design and modelling interface enables non-CAD users to easily and quickly create projects in 3D. As an alternative to traditional mouse-based CAD software or 3D design apps, haptics tools are entirely touch- and movement- based. Specifically, they transfer your physical movements into the computer, so you can “hand-make” a digital file without specialized 3D design software skills. they allow users to use their sense of touch and feel to create a digital object without specialized 3D computer aided design skills. Anarkik 3D will explain how haptics can liberates users from relying entirely on keystrokes, programming, or a mouse.
