The amazing part about this particular print job is that the keys didn&#8217;t have to be printed separately and inserted into the keyboard. Everything was created in a single print, further demonstrating the power of Objet&#8217;s Connex line of 3D printers. <\/p>\n<p><iframe width=\"616\" height=\"347\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/xcuu85dtAyg?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Of course, these keyboards can&#8217;t actually connect to a PC as they are only plastic prototypes. Real keyboards will have to be produced via traditional means until 3D printers can start creating circuitry. Until then, we&#8217;re left with a promising, but currently useless, tech demo of what&#8217;s to come in the world of 3D printing. <\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=lBsFcUCVEus:UoNqKOcNhHQ:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=lBsFcUCVEus:UoNqKOcNhHQ:wF9xT3WuBAs\"><img src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?i=lBsFcUCVEus:UoNqKOcNhHQ:wF9xT3WuBAs\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=lBsFcUCVEus:UoNqKOcNhHQ:7Q72WNTAKBA\"><img src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?d=7Q72WNTAKBA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=lBsFcUCVEus:UoNqKOcNhHQ:V_sGLiPBpWU\"><img src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?i=lBsFcUCVEus:UoNqKOcNhHQ:V_sGLiPBpWU\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=lBsFcUCVEus:UoNqKOcNhHQ:qj6IDK7rITs\"><img src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?d=qj6IDK7rITs\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=lBsFcUCVEus:UoNqKOcNhHQ:mfZ73u_VV2s\"><img src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?i=lBsFcUCVEus:UoNqKOcNhHQ:mfZ73u_VV2s\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div><img src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/webpronews\/all\/~4\/lBsFcUCVEus\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We&#8217;ve already seen what Objet&#8217;s multi-material 3D printers can do, but it&#8217;s always nice to see Objet pushing the boundaries of what its Connex printers can accomplish.
