PROJECT to demonstrate the capability of components built using rapid prototyping technologies is being set up by the Rapid Product Development Group, a tripartite organisation funded by the South East England Development Agency and consisting of commercial rapid product development company 3T RPD, The Centre for Rapid Design and Manufacture at Buckinghamshire Chilterns University College and The Regional Centre for Manufacturing Innovation at Portsmouth University. The idea is to replicate or re-design components on a Smart car which has been bought by 3T RPD, and re-build them using various techniques including polyurethane vacuum casting and selective laser sintering. The car will then be driven in normal everyday conditions to demonstrate their functionality.

Final year students in the South East region are being invited to work on this project. ...
