Asserting Patents To Combat Infringement Via 3d Printing: It’S No “Use”, Daniel Harris Brean

Fordham Intellectual Property, Media and Entertainment Law Journal

Three-dimensional ("3D") printing technology, which enables physical objects to be "printed" as easily as words can be printed on a page, is rapidly moving from industrial settings into consumers' homes. The advent of consumer grade 3D printers fundamentally alters the traditional allocation of manufacturing infrastructure and sales activity.
