System and Method for Designing and Printing 3D Objects for Students in K-12 Classrooms
TS-064241 — The Need: In today's rapidly evolving educational landscape, there is a pressing demand for a user-friendly solution that empowers K12 students to engage in 3D design and printing without the need for specialized training in computer art or engineering disciplines. The existing gap in accessible tools hinders students from exploring their creativity and gaining practical skills in a world increasingly shaped by additive manufacturing technologies.
The Technology: Introducing the 3D Design and Print System and Method—a groundbreaking solution designed to enable K12 students to effortlessly create and print 3D objects in their classrooms. This innovative system provides an intuitive, three-dimensional construction space on a computer screen, allowing students to design objects easily. The digital description of the created object can then be seamlessly sent to a 3D printer for physical realization. Developed initially on the iPad computer, this system is poised to revolutionize K12 education by bridging the gap between technology and creative expression.
Commercial Applications:
Creation of educational models and prototypes
Integration into STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) curricula
Development of custom teaching aids and learning tools
Empowerment of students in art and design projects
Facilitation of cross-disciplinary projects and collaborative learning experiences
Benefits/Advantages:
User-Friendly Interface: The system's simplicity ensures that even kindergarten students and their teachers can quickly learn and adapt to the design process.
Scalability Across Grade Levels: Adapted versions cater to all K12 school levels, providing a tailored experience for lower, middle, and upper schools.
No Technical Training Required: Eliminates the need for specialized training in computer art or engineering, making 3D design and printing accessible to a broader student demographic.
Incorporation into Existing Technology: Seamlessly integrates with existing educational technologies, especially on the widely-used iPad platform.
Real-world Application: Prepares students for the future by imparting practical skills in 3D design and printing, aligning with the demands of a technologically advanced society.
