The world's first 3D print fax machine will be published

This "Zeus" (Zeus) 3D Printing fax machine by the AIO Robotics company produced Sina Science and technology news in Beijing, September 2 morning, the Kickstarter of a new project on the website, there may be the birth of the world's first universal 3D integrated machine, not only can scan, copy, Print 3D objects and even fax 3D objects. The 3D print fax machine called "Zeus" is produced by AIO Robotics, with a 7-inch touchscreen and 4 Zeus buttons. "Zeus" is a stand-alone device that does not need to be connected to a desktop computer. So the next time you need a hammer, you can scan the neighbor's hammer directly, or ask them to fax it to you. The price of the 3D printer is getting lower. For example, MakerBot recently released a 3D printer called Replicator 2 and sold it through some of the 33.4,-0.15,-0.45% flagship stores in the United States, at a price of $2549. However, these machines can only print 3D objects, and "Zeus", in addition to 3D printing, also has 3D scanning, copying and faxing functions. "Zeus" will launch the Kickstarter on September 4 in the new facility with an onboard computer and a 12-inch turntable. Although there is little information on the official web site, their posts at the RepRap forum suggest that the initial test showed that the machine was capable of printing objects at a resolution of 100 microns or less. AIO Robotics was founded by Dr. Changkai of the University of Southern California (Kai Chang, transliteration) and Jane Wendao (Jens Windau). The company claims that people who do not know the technology can also easily use "Zeus", which is even more convenient than the home 2D printer. Because of the use of airborne computers, the object can be scanned directly. If necessary, data can be transmitted over the Internet. While it is unclear exactly what the product is priced at, it is likely to be cheaper than MakerBot's repilcator and digitizer. More messages will not be known until the project is launched through Kickstarter. (PEI)
