3D printed Remote Control Trucks
My exhibit would consist primarily of my three remote control models on display. (Two model trucks and a model Snowcat Machine). The models are 100% designed and built by me, highly detailed, and quite large, around 2.5 feet long and 10+ pounds each. Because my models depict off-road vehicles, I plan to decorate my table with elements such as rocks and logs, upon which I can pose the models in their natural habitat. Additionally, I plan to have several sample 3D printed parts that show off my unique printing processes and colorful posters that depict the computerized design of the models and visual depictions of the 3d printing process. I may bring a 3D printer for demonstrations and for printing and replacement parts in case anything breaks during the day. Interested guests will be able to drive the models around on the floor and over obstacles. I will also display a QR code that links to my online community where members can download, 3D print, and modify my models, as well as upload their own. My online community has drawn together almost 1000 people of all ages, from around the world, and I am confident that my exhibit will make a great addition to Imagine RIT!
