Every great breakthrough begins with someone being told, “It’s impossible.”
When we first envisioned the idea of a 3D scanning and laser etching machine, no one thought it was practical, primarily because the industry required skilled designers and laser operators with years of training and experience, and long design times. Our focus was beyond these barriers. We saw an opportunity to innovate and make our 3D crystal production process much simpler, faster, and accessible.
The Vision
The vision was bold:
· A machine that could automatically edit an image in about 10 seconds.
· To increase accessibility, we aimed for a Push-button technology that anyone, not just trained operators, could use.
· A finished 3D photo crystal in under 60 seconds, perfect for souvenirs at tourist venues.
Each step of that vision was met with the same answer: “Impossible.”
Breaking Through
We never took impossible for an answer. And hence, what once took a skilled designer 50 minutes to prepare could now be automated in seconds. We automated the process such that we no longer need an experienced laser operator. Today it could be done at the push of a button. Something that took 15 minutes or more to engrave could now be completed in just about a minute.
This was a revolution in the 3D crystal industry. Faster turnaround times had its significant impact on business and opened new opportunities for 3D laser gifts, tourist kiosks. This gave entrepreneurs the opportunity to offer customers the excitement of seeing their memories transformed instantly into a crystal photo cube or keepsake.
Why It Matters
To us, innovation is not always about speed; it's more about making technology accessible to everyone, regardless of their level of knowledge or expertise. We aimed at bringing advancements so that our customers can:
· Create a 3D crystal photo almost instantly, be it a wedding keepsake, anniversary gift, or a thoughtful souvenir.
· Enjoy the magic of seeing their photo engraved in a crystal right before their eyes.
· Be a part of the 3D photo crystal family as we've made it simple and affordable.
The Bigger Picture
Innovations are born from ideas that were once considered impossible. Anything described as impossible is just an opportunity yet to be explored. And with a strong will and dedicated mind, you can bring out the true potential of an impossible opportunity. Though we came across several situations like these, we've turned each obstacle into a wonderful innovation that made it faster, easier, and much more accessible for our clients to enjoy our 3D Crystal magic.
