Asda offer 3D printing in store
Asda are trailing a new in store 3D printing service for customers, this service would allow the customers to scan and replicate anything in ceramic. This service is going to be launched on the 15th October in the company's York store. If this trail goes successful, then Asda are going to launch in out in all of their stores in the nation. It takes 2 minutes to scan the whole surface of the object. Anything could be scanned and then it could be made into models. They could get models with any color they like.
Once the model has been scanned in the system, it would then be sent off to the specialist 3D printer, so that it could be recreated in ceramic. The prices start up from £40 and would be ready for next weeks shopping and they would be ready in store for pick up. Asda say that they should be popular for cake toppers.
No statistics
My view: I personally think that most people in today's time would not be interested in this because people don't waste money just like this. Unless people who are interested in models and want something like that as their display in their home, then they might buy it, but i think that this concept of gaining extra revenue would not work for Asda. People would not be interested to just give a way money like that, unless they get something interesting.
