CES 2012: Casio creates wild art images with 3D printing (Yahoo! News)

Turn your 2D images into 3D art with Casio's 3D painting technology

From making?hermit crab shells to creating?vases based on the shape of your face,?3D printing seems to be doing everything these days. So, really, we shouldn't have been surprised to see?Casio showing off their own 3D printing tech on the?CES show floor.

Casio's gallery of 3D artwork was created from 2D images and their own 3D printing technology. It comes in two flavors: relief paintings, like the image above, which are subtly textured; and 3D digital paintings, like the ones below, which make a big jump into the third dimension. (We can't lie: while the technology at work here is definitely impressive, some of their pet photos were a bit on the creepy side.)

Though it's not on the market yet, Casio hopes to offer this wild 3D printing technology as a service at some point in the future ? so if you're interested, you should start looking for your best pet photos to digitize right now.

Creepy or cool? You decide
