Giant 3D printer could build homes in under a day




Scientists in California say new technology will soon allow massive 3D printers to build entire multi-level houses in under a day.


University of Southern California Professor Behrokh Khoshnevis has for years been working on a building printing technology called “contour crafting,” and has earned accolades from the likes of the National Inventors Hall of Fame and even NASA for his efforts. Soon, he says, he’ll be able to use that system to create entire structures out of concrete using what is essentially a gigantic 3D printer.
