Even though it will probably take a while (but not as long as you may think) for 3D Printers to become a common household item, automakers are preparing themselves for this technological breakthrough. After Porsche, Honda has also shared three-dimensional (3D) data for exterior designs of some of its models. In the Japanese automaker's case, it is providing 3D Print info for five concepts from the past, including the 2013 NSX sports coupe, the 2007 Puyo, the 2003 Kiwami Fuel-Cell study, the 1999 Fuya-Jo kei car and the 1994 FSR/ Honda claims that the data, which is offered for free under a Creative Commons license, allows users to easily replicate the concept studies using a household 3D printer, which turns a digital
model into a three-dimensional solid object using successive layers of material laid down in different shapes. The 3D Print initiative is part of a new global branding project that highlights' "Honda's unique approaches and thoughts toward the 'art of manufacturing'", and it follows the "Super ultra daydreams" spot that made its debut at the start of Honda's press conference at the Tokyo Motor Show last year. You can download the 3D Print data at Honda's dedicated site here. Source: Article
