What Happens When You Need To 3D Print Really Large Objects?

3D Printer Array Can Create Huge Objects in a Single Print (Tomorrow Daily 338) (+Video)

Autodesk's experimental 3D printer network can make large objects in a fraction of the time; also, Microsoft unveils a demo for what it's calling "Holoportation."

On today's show, we discuss Microsoft's Holoportation demo, which could revolutionize the way we communicate using scanning technology and Hololens.
We're also discussing Autodesk's Project Escher, which consists of a scalable array of 3D printers. Can you imagine future car prototypes being churned out of a massive network of 3D printers?
