Color 3D printing just got a huge boost from the Fraunhofer Institute for Computer Graphics Research in Germany. Until now, Mcor’s paper 3D printing and 3D Systems binder-jetting processes have been among the best at creating vivid, colorful prints, but, according to MIT Technology Review, Alan Brunton, et al. have developed a new software and 3D printing process, relying on translucent materials, that brings an almost lifelike quality to full-color prints.
As opposed to Mcor or 3D Systems technologies, the Franhofer researchers bet on multi-jet printers, like Stratasys Connex technique.…
