An explanation
It has been a little while since my last blog on IP issues in the capture-create/modify/make ecosystem and I apologize for that. As many of you may know, Geomagic develops a wide range of software solutions to capture, modify and inspect 3D digital models of physical objects.
Rapid 2012 – a major US annual gathering of people, designers, companies, and providers in the 3D rapid prototyping markets – kicks off today in Atlanta, GA. The event demonstrates the growing trend of how artists and creators are utilizing 3D technologies for their expression, while highlighting leaders in manufacturing who are changing our world using 3D. As an event which, successfully, mingles art with science, the diverse groups of people attending treat it as a unique opportunity to learn from each other.

This week, Syazwani Aziz, a student user of Geomagic Studio, posted a question of Geomagic's Facebook page about creating segments in a scanned model.

"To advance and apply 3D technology for the benefit of humanity.” That’s my newly acquired company mission statement, and when I first heard it, I will admit, it seemed rather lofty! But in fact, Geomagic’s products are used to support that mission every day. Here’s a great example of how one of our OEM partners is using the Sensable Phantom® force-feedback haptic devices (now owned by Geomagic) to improve the lives of people affected by neurological conditions such as multiple sclerosis or spinal cord injury.
I am fascinated about the profound changes impacting the create/modify/make ecosystem. In a prior blog I outlined some these profound shifts ultimately resulting in a true democratization of 3D and technologies.
The engineering team at Geomagic has been hard at work the last few months responding to feedback from our customers and partners, and we are pleased to announce the availability of Service Release 1 for the Geomagic family of products. In addition to numerous bug fixes, we have added some interesting new features which will help make our users more productive.

The Glitz.... the Glamour...the Fame. Everyone thinks that this is in abundance as soon as they hear you work in film. Ha! Well if it does, I have yet to see much of it.
Part II of this post by Tom Kurke looks at the terms and conditions of the various 3D aggregation and printing services currently available and comes to some conclusions about what is really needed.
The latest in a series of posts by Geomagic COO, Tom Kurke, who is intrigued by the current state of Intellectual property laws, or more precisely the lack of them, and the effect it is having on protecting your designs in 3D.
It doesn’t matter whether you believe that the current boundaries of intellectual property protection do not go far enough to protect the rights of content creators or if you believe that copyrights, patents and other forms of intellectual property protection have been stretched well beyond their intended scope – the conclusion still remains – “Houston, we have a problem.”
