It prints “all at once”, instead of layer-by -layer, so eliminates those annoying lines.

There’s a video here:
The obvious question is, how long till it’s cheap enough for miniatures?
Cool, lets hope soon.
Saw this posted on Shapeways forum. Interesting but from the printing in the video, feels like still many years to go until it can do the level of details miniatures need. Not a 3D printing scientist but they’ll need to reduce refraction and defraction in order to get the details. Moving the projector closer doesn’t look like an option.
I was excited at first but by the time this is consumer ready other printing methods will probably be much cheaper and better quality.
For miniatures I’m more optimistic for SLA/DLP printers.

Anycubic Photon is currently ~$500, hopefully in a few years we could get even better quality on cheaper printers.
