THE AMAZING HP’S NEW TECHNOLOGY

HP 3D printer

HP on recently announced its Blended Reality ecosystem, consisting of HP Multi Jet Fusion, an advanced 3D printer; and Sprout by HP -- a combination scanner, depth sensor, high-res camera and projector that provides 3D images of items and enables real-time remote collaboration.

"3D printing technologies are used in manufacturing today, but HP's printer will be relatively low-cost and fast," Pete Basiliere, a research vice president at Gartner, told TechNewsWorld. "That's where the disruption will come from."

The Sprout has a 23-inch, 10-point touch-enabled 1920 x 1080 pixel full HD white LED-backlit display that offers a wide viewing angle, and a horizontal 20-point capacitive touch mat.

It has an illuminator powered by a DLP projector. The illuminator's four-camera sensory system includes an HP camera with up to 14.6-MP resolution and the Intel RealSense 3D camera for instant capture of 2D and 3D objects.

The Sprout also has a fixed 1-MP 720p HD low-light front-facing HP webcam.

It comes with the Adonit Jot Pro stylus.

The Sprout has an Nvidia GeForce GT 745A GPU, an Intel i7 CPU, and 8 GB of RAM. It uses Windows 8.1 and has 1 TB of storage.
