Rapid Prototyping
 
 

Cranbourne School in Basingstoke together with A.W.E. in Newbury have run a competition to design 'night-vision' goggles for the armed forces as part of their Year 10 Graphic Products course.

Below are the amazing results of that competition.

The two winners of the competition spent a day with C.A.D experts from A.W.E. constructing their designs on A.W.E's state of the art computer equipment.

      A week later, the pupils taking the course visited a Rapid Prototyping company in the Midlands and the winning models were realised on their machines.  
     
 
     

The models are made by turning a liquid  into a solid, by shining a laser onto it.  very clever stuff !!!.

And here they are....
