The
United States based company - 3D Makery.com founded by Nigerian serial
entrepreneur, Israel Ovirih has adding a new
dimension to selfies
in Nigeria, by launching the first of its kind 3D scanning and printing service
the
“ultimate selfie technology” in
Nigeria and Africa. It can be of you, your spouse, child, or pet,
anything that can be scanned inside the Shapify booth preserve the most
memorable moments with the ultimate selfie.
The
introduction of this service marks the first in Africa and one of the numerous
few that are available globally.
3D Makery offers wider range of 3D
printing services, its first viable minimum product - the 3D selfies or shapies
Speaking at the 3-day unveiling event
at Ikeja City mall, Lagos, 3D Makery Nigeria Chairman and Founder, Israel
Ovirih explained that the one of a kind destructive technology that will
outshine every other technology availing youths employment through self
dependence in Nigeria.
According to him, “3D technology is
opening up a whole new world of possibilities and the reward of 3D printing
technology is that the scan can be used to produce a full color figurine known
as a ‘Shapie.’ So, rather than a half cocked snapshot you can have a 3D
printed sculpture to either keep as your own or give as a gift”.
“The so-called “shapies” use 3D
printing technology and designed to bring joy and happiness each time a person
gazes upon the "Mini-Me".
“We’re thrilled bringing this advanced
3D tools and knowledgeable support team to help grow Nigeria’s technology
business. We have had success and satisfaction with this technology and,
upon experiencing the technology ourselves, knew it would be a benefit for
Nigerians. We are confident customers will embrace this technology. While it’s
still wonderful to have collections of photos, this 3D technology offers a new
way to revisit a memory with a 3D portrait.” He said.
On the mechanics of the 3D Technology,
the Chief Operating Officer, 3D Makery Nigeria, Damola Kolawole explained that
the booth where all this magic happens contains four wide-view, high-resolution
scanners that rotate around the person inside in order to capture them from all
angles. The level of detail that can be captured by these scanners is such that
it will even pick up things like a logo on a shirt or the jersey of
your favorite sports team.
“The hundreds of images that are
generated in this way are then automatically stitched together with special
software and a 3D model is generated from that composite. After the digital
model is created, the figurine can then be produced”. He concluded
The
event recorded massive turnout with notable faces in Nigeria entertainment
industry like former Mr. Nigeria Bryan Okwara, Sound Sultan, Ghanian Actress
Juliet Ibrahim and many more having their pictures taken.

ReplyDeleteThe unveiling of new 3D scanning technology by 3D Makery is exciting, as it pushes the boundaries of digitizing the physical world with ever-greater accuracy and detail. This advancement in capture technology is one side of the digital-physical bridge. The other side is fabrication, where those detailed digital scans or original designs become physical objects through 3D printing from https://www.gambody.com/ . For enthusiasts looking to print highly detailed objects, the quality of the source model is paramount. This is why many turn to specialized marketplaces that guarantee high detail and printability. The synergy between advanced scanning, detailed modeling, and precise printing is what continues to expand the possibilities of this technology.
