At the time, the exact location of the project had not been revealed. The project is now officially underway in Tabasco, Mexico. The two players have been joined by \u00c9CHALE, New Story\u2019s partner in Mexico. The homes will be granted to local families currently living in extreme poverty and unsafe shelters.

After scanning the shape of their face with a smartphone, the company 3D prints the frames of the glasses according to the child&#8217;s needs. Fitz Frames has invested in EOS&#8217; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.3dnatives.com\/en\/direct-metal-laser-sintering100420174-2\/\">Laser Powder Bed Fusion<\/a> machines to manage the entire manufacturing process from start to finish. It can thus control the quality of its 3D printed glasses and respond more effectively to demand:<\/p><div class=\"dnati-inside-article-leaderboard\" style=\"text-align: center;\" id=\"dnati-3004657030\"><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/app.swapcard.com\/login\/event\/additiv-defense-2026\/ticket\/VGlja2V0VHlwZV83MDM4MQ==\/page\/UmVnaXN0cmF0aW9uRm9ybV81NjE4Ng==\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"a2t-link\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"LB\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.3dnatives.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/03\/LB.gif\" alt=\"\"  width=\"850\" height=\"150\"   \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/zUQhwwN29tg\" width=\"700\" height=\"400\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h4>Top 3: Designing Raptor Rescue Vulture Tracking<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Raptor Rescue is an association that aims to treat injured birds of prey. Vultures are now an endangered species &#8211; in Africa alone, their distribution and population has dropped by 95%. In the following video, the teams tried to understand the dangers faced by vultures and wanted to track them via a GPS system. It was necessary to design a discreet case, which the vultures could carry without too much problem. After several unsuccessful attempts, they turned to FDM 3D printing. They were able to create devices weighing only 6 grams, practical to wear and fully customizable. They can now understand where the vultures have gone, where the threats are, etc. :<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Z58oygDNyps\" width=\"700\" height=\"400\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h4>Top 4: Pantone Validated Colors<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Stratasys J835\u2122 and J850\u2122 printers are PANTONE Validated. This is the first additive manufacturing technology that offers professional design realism.
