Guru Labs Developer Workshop (April 2015): Personal 3D Printing and Why

[Rob Oakes]

Dear Ogden Area Linux Users Group,

Guru Labs will be holding a development workshop on Wednesday, April 15, 2015 at 6:00 pm.

Title: Personal 3D Printing and Why

Presenter:  Adam Bosen

Description: 3D printers used to be for large corporations with deep pockets, but recent developments in the industry have made it possible for every household to have their own. Adam Bosen bought a kit to build a fused deposition modeling 3D printer in May 2013 and can't imagine life without it. Adam uses it for home repairs, toys, gifts, decorations, and personal inventions. 3D printing turns your imaginations into tangible objects within a few hours. Adam will present an overview of current 3D printing techniques and share his experiences with 3D printing.  Adam predicts that 3D printers will become as commonplace as desktop PCs and laser printers. Come see his printer in action and see why you need one too.

Biography: Adam Bosen grew up in Pittsbury California, and graduated with a bachelors of science degree in Computer Science in 2006. Adam is the Lead Software Developer for the Triton Unmanned Aerial Surveillance Vehicle Program (a program of the US Navy) and works for L3 Communications in Salt Lake City. Adam loves computing, network programming, mountain biking, backpacking, quad-copters, roller coasters, 3D printing, and spending time with family.
