3D printers and rapid prototyping

What is the difference between an RP machine and a 3D printer?
The flippant answer is, “about $50,000.”3D printers are really just lower-cost, somewhat less-capable, rapid prototyping machines. These days they sell at prices in the $10,000 to $25,000 range rather than the $60,000 (and up – way up) associated with their [...]

Rapid prototyping

Rapid prototyping – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rapid prototyping is the automatic construction of physical objects using additive manufacturing technology. The first techniques for rapid prototyping became available in the late 1980s and were used to produce models and prototype parts. Today, they are used for a much wider range of applications and are even used [...]

Stereolithography Machines

Rapid Prototyping Machines, Stereolithography Machines – ProtoCAM
ProtoCAM uses two SLA-7000 stereolithography machines to help customers to reduce costs and lead-times. The SLA-7000 builds up to 3 times faster than the previous model (it replaced the SLA-5000.) This increase in speed significantly reduces the time and cost for large scale SLA models and helps you to [...]

Prototyping interaction design

I started look at ScreenFlow as a possible prototyping software – and then found that it actually does the job for iphones.
Creating a screencast with a Mac: will you use iShowU HD, Screenium, ScreenFlow, or Snapz Pro?
Perhaps you want to create a software training on your Mac, or you just want to show people something [...]
