But the newest development in the burgeoning technology is a president—well, his face and shoulders, anyway. The first presidential portraits created from 3D scan data were displayed today at the White House Maker Faire, featuring Barack Obama's facial data collected by a Smithsonian-led team of 3D digital imaging specialists. Both a bust and life mask of the nation's 44th president were shown at the inaugural Makers Faire, an event that celebrates Americans who employ technology to foster innovation and create new business. The replicas will eventually join the collections at the National Portrait Gallery, which owns multiple images of each president, including the famed plaster life masks of Abraham Lincoln and George Washington.[/quote] [url]http://www.smithsonianmag.com/smithsonian-institution/president-obama-now-first-president-to-be-3D-scanned-printed-180951784/?no-ist[/url]

my first observation is that he's white.

Print-O'-Bama I want one

I want the files, I live in a super conservative area so I want to hide little 3D printed obama-busts everywhere. It would be hilarious.

It's probably the light but his eyes look totally derp. :v:

[QUOTE=sYnced;45152349]my first observation is that he's white.[/QUOTE] theyre going to have to put an asterix next to his bust

I can't help feeling like the picture is an illusion and it's actually one of those strange inverted statues.

Like seriously, suspend disbelief for a second, try to imagine his bust as a white man. Honestly, if someone didn't tell me and I didn't know about obama at all, I would say this was another white guy if put next to however many white presidents there have been so far.

Can we 3d print out another Obama and re-elect it in 2016?

Whereas before, a sculpture would spend a lifetime mastering the art of sculpting, now anybody with a few hours of 3D Program training and a 3D printers can create something just as good, if not, better.
