to show the middling consumer that 3D printer are n’t just for prototyping part or build a plastic lodging for an Arduino undertaking , the MakerBot Digital Store has add together a handful ofdownloadable 3-D models of Sesame Street charactersthat parents can impress for their kids .

While the enterprisingness helps promote fun , consumer - friendly usage for 3D printers , it also illustrates one of the current issues with the technology . In the near - time to come someone with a 3D printing machine could — at least in theory — download and print copies of an genuine strong-arm intersection , the same agency they can illegally download copyright digital media .

So it makes sense that companies are understandably hesitating to create 3D - printable rendering of their most profitable properties . That ’s also why the MakerBot Digital Store is only put in 3D manikin of Sesame Street B - leaning type like Guy - Smiley , Yip - Yip , or Mr. Snuffleupagus — instead of Big Bird , Bert and Ernie , or Elmo . It ’s a piddling disappointing , but it ’s nice to see toy companies at least testing the three-D - impress waters . Because if promotion like this are successful , it means we might eventually be seeing more popular properties being made available to consumer this direction . [ MakerBot Digital Store ]
