We know that 3D printing is making it easier for inventors everywhere to create prototypes of their designs. At Virginia Tech, students can even get a prototype the same way they'd buy a can of Coke. The campus is now home to the Dream Vendor, a one-of-a-kind vending machine made up of four Makerbot Thing-O-Matic 3D printers, each one loaded with a different-color plastic. Users insert a personal SD card loaded with a file of their CAD-drawn 3D model into one of the machine's four interface boards. The selected printer then builds the 3D model layer by layer in cross-sections.
