3D printed moveable toy dog Oh Dog
Brazillian students Pedro Figueiredo and Bruna Milam needed to do a graduation project for their Industrial Design course at the Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro. They opted to make a toy 3D print using i.materialise. The duo used functional mechanisms and customization possibilities on the toy to increase its effectiveness and value. The toy’s name is Oh Dog! and he is a sad dog with an absurd cone collar with a mechanical iris on his neck. Pedro and Bruna are now seeing if they can turn their whacky dog into a business. They also would like to thank Karen and Vlad of our customer servies team for all the help both gave them in repairing the file and helping them with the engineering of the Dog. We wish them a lot of luck and congratulate them on a great product! We would like to thank Chris Lefteri for including a reference to i.materialise in his book Making It: Manufacturing Techniques for Product Design, which is how Pedro and Bruna found us in the first place.
Check out the video of the adorable dog below, it can be moved!
This is exactly the kind of entrepeneurship we want to encourage with i.materialise. Two talented people turning sweat, skill & 3D printing into a complete product, is what we are all about.
