The Story Behind the First 3D Printed Basketball (Airless Prototype) 🏀 Wilson, DyeMansion, GL, EOS
⛹️♂️ Wilson’s Airless Prototype not only shows what it means to think of products in a completely new way. It also shows the almost unlimited potential of Additive Manufacturing. In this short documentary, you will gain completely new insights into the creation of the Airless Prototype: from the initial idea and the design to 3D-printing the ball and post-processing it with the DyeMansion equipment.
