Abstract

This paper discusses the current status of layer-based manufacturing Rapid Prototyping (RP) technology and how it is being successfully implemented as a tool for product development (PD). A brief introduction to RP is given, focusing on the limitations of existing technology. Future trends for RP development are then discussed with further consideration for software issues in future applications.
