They were faced with a problem: the laser was crossing the surface. So they used a 3D scanning spray which allowed them to cover the surface, which gave a better end result:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/bgaDd9mfz6Y\" width=\"700\" height=\"400\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p><div class=\"dnati-inside-article-leaderboard\" style=\"text-align: center;\" id=\"dnati-1916158880\"><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 (4)\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.3dnatives.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/03\/LB-4.gif\" alt=\"\"  width=\"850\" height=\"150\"   \/><\/a><\/div>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Top 2: Atlas Robots<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Recently, humanoid robots called Atlas caused a sensation on the internet and social networks. Designed by Boston Dynamics, they are capable of doing parkour, a discipline that involves moving between obstacles at remarkable speed. To build them, the American company relied on 3D printed components, like the legs that were manufactured through additive manufacturing, to integrate hydraulic lines. And although Atlas robots have already met with some success, Boston Dynamics hopes to be able to continue to develop them:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/tF4DML7FIWk\" width=\"700\" height=\"400\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Top 3: Grand Theft Auto 3D-Printed Map<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Product designer Dom Riccobene took 400 hours to create an ultra-accurate 3D-printed map of Grand Theft Auto&#8217;s fictional crime-ridden US State San Andreas.
