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
0:13
see their food version so that's chocolate and sugar that we've got that
0:17
in another video that'll either be coming up before or after this one I'm not entirely sure but this one is more
0:21
just an overview about what's going on here so here they have everything from
0:25
3D printed high heels to 3D printed superheroes and action figures which is
0:30
amazing the quality of detail on some of these prints are insane and 3D Systems
0:34
has a wide variety of printers you can choose from I do believe they're
0:37
printing from a proprietary filament but that seems to be extremely common here
0:41
and I know the food one is printing from uh proprietary powder as well if you're
0:45
thinking about getting into 3D printing game there might be some chap cheaper printers we've seen one from I think it
0:49
was XYZ Printing or something like that but then the the quality of detail that
0:54
we found at 3D Systems was quite High um
0:58
I know myself I I'm not super into 3D printers yet as I haven't gotten one uh
1:02
because they have traditionally been quite expensive but some of the kickstarters that have been going by and
1:07
a lot of other things that have been happening have been absolutely fantastic
1:10
and I'm excited to see where 3D printing is going if you haven't noticed yet I am
1:13
buying a little bit of time just so that Brandon can show some of the Glorious
1:16
footage that we have from all around this place because Brandon and I did
1:19
find ourselves getting lost happily lost in the 3D printing section seeing some
1:23
of the amazing things that they have made even just in 3D Systems again they
1:27
had some cups they had cup holders they had they had switches and door knobs and
1:31
heels and and and and action heroes and
1:34
full bodysuits and guns fake guns plastic guns that aren't actually firing
1:39
I know there's some 3D printed guns that fire that have been made but not here so
1:43
much there's even there's even uh military applications I think it was a
1:46
plane in Europe recently has 3D printed Parts in it and was flown which is
1:51
absolutely incredible 3D printing is going to blow up the industry very soon
1:55
I believe if it hasn't already thank you for watching all of our CES content if
