Introduction:
Chong Pak – Director of Design
•Graduate of the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, CA
•In the past have worked with clients including Steelcase, HON, Whirlpool, and Johnson Controls designing products as a consultant.
•Currently leading a small group of designers and engineers to bring to fruition new products and ideas that our team or CEO has.
olloclip, what is it? (shameless plug):
•3-in-One lens system for the iPhone 5/4S/4
•Lenses include: Fisheye, Wide-Angle, and Macro.
•Switching between lenses involve simply flipping the olloclip to the other side.
•Voted best photo lens accessory by Wired magazine.
olloclip History:
•CEO/Inventor: Patrick O’Neill
•The product was in development over a year before we launched on Kickstarter.com
•Utilized 3D printing during that development time as well
•Successfully funded well above our goal, and at the time we were one of the more successful projects to be featured.
•Proved to be a great way of marketing and getting exposure all over the world.
olloclip History:
•For many months we were a very small team consisting of Patrick and I along with his family and friends assembling and fulfilling orders.
•We’ve grown enough to have moved twice to consecutively larger offices in less than 2 years.
•Small, agile team of designers and engineers.
•Rapid prototyping was extensively used to validate concepts and changes in design.
•We were outsourcing printing with a service bureau. Over time it lead us to want to have a printer in-house for additional time savings and IP protection.
olloclip Process:
1. Brainstorming, concept generation.
2. Sketching of ideas.3. Modeling chosen
concepts in the computer.
4. Printing the concepts on the Objet printer.
5. Evaluate the prototype for functionality, proportions, aesthetics.
6. Make changes if needed and reprint.
7. Re-evaluate.8. If concept is approved
and everything looks good, move forward to mass production.

olloclip and Objet:
After many months of research, sample parts from various manufacturers we ended up on the Objet as our printer of choice. The reasons consisted of:
• Resolution of printed parts.• Robustness of parts to
function as we needed them to.
• Ability to print multiple materials.
• Material handling and disposal.
Why Objet?
Future of 3D printing with olloclip:
olloclip will continue to utilize 3D printing to aid in developing our products and validating design. As the sophistication of the printers become better, we can’t imagine why we wouldn’t make it even more integral into our process.
We’re always looking at what opportunities and advantages are to be had when incorporating these technologies, more so in this highly competitive market that we’re in.
We’re confident that 3D printing will allow us to continue to shrink the gap between development and production.

From Design to Reality….
With Objet:
Maximilian Loezel, Managing Director,
Schroeter, (Service Bureau), Germany
“Objet’s new clear transparent material has arrived just in time for the
automotive lighting revolution, enabling us to simulate PlexiGlass final
parts, including light guides, lamps, display panels
and more.”
• 38%* of additive manufacturing processes today are Functional and RM
• Functional processes require– High Temperature– High Toughness (resistance to breakage)
*Wholers report 2012
