The installation is an endeavour by Altem to create awareness about the possibilities of 3D Printing amongst the public. All the idols were created exclusively through professional 3D Printers. The Ganesha 3D Printed models are created by 3D scanning the idols with Artec 3D Scanner & then printed in Stratasys FDM (Fused Deposition Modelling) & Polyjet technology based 3D Printers, capturing every intricate detail in the idol.
