AstroPrint is a suite of software and services, designed for 3D printing by 3DaGoGo Inc., a private San Diego based technology company. AstroPrint develops software to enable the management of 3D printing from any web enabled device. AstroPrint works by taking a user's uploaded STL file, adding supports, slicing it, and saving the g-code in the user's account online. The user can then access, download, modify, and print their models wirelessly via their 3D printer. AstroPrint is built with a combination of 3D printing software, such as ''Cura'', ''Repetier Host'', ''Slic3r'', and ''OctoPrint''. AstroPrint is compatible with most consumer 3D printers and its open source software can be run on a Raspberry Pi. ==Background== In May 2014, while part of the ''Betaspring'' seed accelerator,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://betaspring.com/blog/2014/05/21/astroprint-making-wireless-remote-3d-printing-reality )〕 AstroPrint successfully raised $40,314 and met their funding goal in a single day using the crowdfunding website Kickstarter. Subsequently, AstroPrint attended and graduated from the ''500 Startups''〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://500.co/500-startups-announces-batch-11-in-mountain-view/ )〕 seed accelerator in Mountain View, CA. AstroPrint maintains partnerships with National Institutes of Health,〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.openbiomedical.org/astroprint-streamlines-medical-model-preparation-for-the-nih-3d-print-exchange/ )〕 3D Hubs, i.materialise〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://3dprint.com/86897/astroprint-imaterialise-social/ )〕 and 3D Slash.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://evonexus.org/2015/08/astroprint-integrates-the-3d-slash-app/ )〕 3D printer manufacturer Airwolf 3D ships 3D Printers with AstroPrint software integrated.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://airwolf3d.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/Airwolf-3D-news-release-HD-R-PR-CES.pdf )〕 Investors of AstroPrint include Dave McClure, Will Bunker, Dave Hodson (''Co-Founder & CTO of MessageCast Inc.''〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://news.microsoft.com/2005/05/11/msn-acquires-messagecast-to-expand-automated-alerting-services/ )〕) and Christine Tsai. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「AstroPrint」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
