Kickstarter of the week OLO Smartphone 3D printer what

This is a Kickstarter that has been funded 2,180,650of their initial $80,000 goal.It doesn’t necessarily need your help to become a reality – but you’ll probably want one in your reality.

 

Introducing the OLO. The very first Smartphone 3D Printer.  Crazy.

3D printers are still fringe for some of the population even though they’ve  been around for a while. They’re very cool, have so many amazing consequences for the future, but have been a little expensive and carry a little bit of a intimidating barrier to entry for the general population.

 

The OLO on the other hand, comes in at a slick $99 clams, is portable at just over a pound, runs on AA batteries, and is super easy for both new users and pro’s. This one sentence says it all, straight from the Sauce:

 

“Imagine being able to print 3D objects directly from your smartphone… for just $99.”

 

Actually, OLO dudes, we weren’t able to imagine that… Now we can though. OLO won the World Maker Faire Editor’s Choice Award in October 2015 and has since blown people’s minds, just like it did ours, worldwide.

 

There’s 16 hours left on the Kickstarter. You should probably check it out. Get in on the future!

Whaaat.

 

Yup. You get music streaming, and you don’t have to carry your phone. Hello runners, walkers, general-exercising-and-traveling people? This is for you.

 

It’s a lightweight device that you can clip onto your clothing that has bluetooth and WiFi that can play 48 hours of music without any internet connection.

 

Sound good? How about if we tell you that it’s only $79.

 

Really good? Yup.
