6.Did you ever have that moment as a kid when you wished your drawings would come to life?Dream no more.A new company has developed a technology instead of just an idea on paper that allows you to do that.People can turn doodles (涂鴉) into 3-D objects thanks to the 3Doodles pen,the world's first 3-D printing pen.
The 3Doodle pen starts out like any other kind of pen.You begin by drawing normally,with the nib (筆尖) pressed to paper,but then you lift it in the air and the pen keeps drawing.As you draw,hot plastic comes out of the pen,cools down by a small fan contained in the nib and becomes a solid strand (線).
Created by Wobble Works,this pen is quite different from a 3-D printer.For example,this pen requires no computers or image files,and it can be used to create anything a person can dream up.How about a bicycle or a bird?Or what about a small Eiffel Tower?The 3Doodle pen can be used to create all these things.
"We wanted to design a 3-D printing device that could be used within minutes,without needing any technical knowledge,software or computers.We also wanted it to be affordable as well as fun,"said Peter Dilworth,co-founder of Wobble Works.
"We could in theory use the pen to melt sticks of sugar,"3Doodle spokesman Daniel Cowen said.
In the 3Doodler Kick-Starter Campaign,Wobble Works raised more than 5million dollars to make the product a reality!So why not get one and make your drawings come to life?
