Linus tech tips coverage of CES 2014 is
brought to you by NCI XCOM your source
for great technology selection and
service along with Corsair memory and
Western Digital hey guys we're out here
standing in front of 3d systems if you
want to see their food version so that's
chocolate and sugar that we've got that
in another video that will either be
coming up before or after this one I'm
not entirely sure but this one is more
just an overview about what's going on
here so here they have everything from
3d printed high heels to 3d printed
superheroes and action figures which is
amazing the quality of detail on some of
these prints are insane and 3d systems
has a wide variety of printers you can
choose from
I do believe they're printing from a
proprietary filament but that seems to
be extremely common here and I know the
food one is for printing from
proprietary powder as well if you're
thinking about getting into 3d printing
game there might be some cheaper
printers we've seen one form I think it
was XYZ printing or something like that
but then the the quality of detail that
we found at 3d systems was quite high I
know myself I'm not super into 3d
printers yet as I haven't gotten one
because they have traditionally been
quite expensive but some of the
Kickstarter's that have been going by
and a lot of other things that have been
happening have been absolutely fantastic
and I'm excited to see where 3d printing
is going if you haven't noticed yet I am
buying a little bit of time just so that
Brandon can show some of the glourious
footage that we have from all around
this place because Brandon and I did
find ourselves getting lost happily lost
in the 3d printing section seeing some
of the amazing things that they have
made even just in 3d systems again they
had some cups they had cup holders they
had they had switches and doorknobs and
heels and and and action heroes and full
body suits and guns fake guns plastic
guns that aren't actually firing I know
there's some 3d printed guns that fire
that have been made but not here so much
there's even there's even military
applications I think it was a plane in
Europe recently has 3d printed parts in
it and was flown which is absolutely
incredible 3d printing is going to blow
up the industry very soon I believe if
it hasn't already thank you for watching
