Read about that a couple of years ago, I think it never went ahead becuase the upholstery was too difficult at the time, I'm not so keen but it is an interesting thing, I imagine there is a hoop of tube or rod used to make the backrest and the oculus takes the place of what would have been buttoning, if so its almost identical to Victorian chairs even though it looks so different.

But the womb is so much cleaner design!

?Normally, when we develop...
?Normally, when we develop or relaunch an old product, we buy it at auction and cut it in two to see what it?s like on the inside,? Mr. Vagner said. But since it was the only one, they had it scanned in 3-D, so they could see the interior. The Oculus is now available in fabric or leather, starting at about $4,700.
Vagner needs to work on language skills. You don't need to cut a chair in two. Scanning in 3-D won't reveal the interior.

Cat scan would make sense. I'm thinking he implied laser scan.

Jeez poor guy is trying to run a business and you expect him to be getting his techy lingo right? 🙂
I'm having trouble holding bevel angles, steel sizes, when my rent is due, tax return, delivery times...blah blah blah in this poor little thing atop my shoulders.

I reckon what would be cool would be 3d printed effigies (how do you spell effigys???) of departed loved ones, but reduced to about a fifth of the size, taken of course when they are healthy.
Antony Gormley did something similar for a project here I think, I'm not usually seduced by high tech gadgets but I would love one of these...Wow that is an amazing bit of gear!

With that, an STL printer and a 3d package you could make some cracking charactertures.
