MatterMachine is an engine for creation, presentation and manufacturing of configurable 3D product models, or ‘Live Product Models’, and a web platform to host them.

An example of a Live Product Model is a surf board, of which the shape and graphics can be deeply customised before it is made. Or a hand prosthetic, that can be tailored to a specific person’s handicap, before it is 3D printed.

A different way to see MatterMachine is that it is a language that we use to describe the products of the Third Industrial Revolution. That revolution is web-powered, and its products are at the very least digitally inspired, and will ultimately be fully web-enabled (Internet of Things).
