Welcome to the second episode of the CADimensions Additive Manufacturing Podcast in front of our brand new Desktop Metal 3D Printer. Here’s what we talked about on the show:
Apple Patents
Our discussion starts with a couple of new patents Apple recently received involving 3d printing using triangular tessellation and 3D printing system patents using augmented reality.
-Apple Patent for Triangular Tessellation 3D Models Granted: https://all3dp.com/4/apple-patent-triangular-tessellation-3d-models-granted/
-Apple Wins Patent for 3D Printing System with ARKit: https://all3dp.com/apple-patent-3d-printing-arkit/
Nike
Nike’s 3D printed Elite shoe preparing for a wider release. They say it gives runners a 4% speed advantage within the first 2 hours of a race. The price ranges from $600-$1,200 which is much better than Adidas’ 3D printed shoe. https://3dprintingindustry.com/news/nikes-3d-printed-elite-shoe-preparing-for-a-wider-release-142527/
