“OLO’s design keeps ambient light out of its build chamber so that the white light from your smartphone’s display can harden the photosensitive resin inside OLO’s build chamber to print your 3D model,” said an OLO statement.

OLO is compatible with a range of free 3D apps or a manual design created from a 3D software of your own choice.

Its daylight photopolymer resins are available in four materials and five colors, including a castable resin for creating molds for metals such as silver and gold.
