3D Systems has acquired Viztu Technologies, the developer of Hypr3D, an online platform that allows anyone to turn their pictures and videos into printable 3D creations.
The company expects to integrate Viztu into Cubify.com, adding intuitive and fun scan-to-print and create-to-print apps.
Viztu’s founders, Ash Martin and Tom Milnes, will join the 3D Systems team.
“Viztu adds an important building block to our growing Cubify platform. Now everyone can begin to express themselves in 3D as easily as snapping a picture,” said Cathy Lewis, Vice President Global Marketing for 3D Systems.
“We believe that this investment will accelerate the democratisation of the entire 3D create and make experience for everyone.”
