U.K. Supermarket Lets You 3-D Scan And Print Yourself In Store Add this one to your grocery list. A supermarket chain in the U.K. is offering a new service that lets customers scan objects and then get figurines of them 3-D-printed in ceramic. The 3-D service debuts tomorrow in the chain Asda's York store. �Here's how it will work. An employee wielding what looks a bit like an iron �will scan the objects customers want. Pets cars and family members are all scannable Asda wrote in a blog post. Asda sends digital files of the scans to a facility where they're printed then shipped back to the Asda store. Customers can pick up their mini-mes a week after getting scanned The Guardian reports. �The prints come in color white or bronze-style according to Asda. They start at �40 ($64) for an 8-inch-tall figurine.This isn't the first we've heard of an in-store scan-yourself service. The MakerBot store in New York City installed a 3-D photo booth last year that let customers scan and 3-D replicate their busts in plastic. We are not prepared to call a trend however until we start seeing 3-D photo booths at wedding and bar mitzvah receptions.[The Guardian]
