Willis, Karl, Brockmeyer, Eric, Hudson, Scott and Poupyrev, Ivan (2012): Printed optics: 3D printing of embedded optical elements for interactive devices. In: Proceedings of the 2012 ACM Symposium on User Interface Software and Technology 2012. pp. 589-598.

We present an approach to 3D printing custom optical elements for interactive devices labelled Printed Optics. Printed Optics enable sensing, display, and illumination elements to be directly embedded in the casing or mechanical structure of an interactive device. Using these elements, unique display surfaces, novel illumination techniques, custom optical sensors, and embedded optoelectronic components can be digitally fabricated for rapid, high fidelity, highly customized interactive devices. Printed Optics is part of our long term vision for interactive devices that are 3D printed in their entirety. In this paper we explore the possibilities for this vision afforded by fabrication of custom optical elements using today's 3D printing technology.
