PTE 3D Project and International Interdisciplinary 3D Conference

University of Pécs PTE 3D Project as a highlighted regional strategic policy, was born in the summer of 2014 with the proposal of the Rector. The 3D printing and visualization technology may appear in the University’s portfolio (as part of the Entrepreneur University project) not only as a significant Research, Development and Innovation pursuit, but a compelling service as well.

We at the UP 3D project are believing that 3D technology will change the activities of engineering, health, art areas short to medium term and will fundamentally affect the spectacular daily lives of us all. Our aim is to form an intellectual workshop in this rapidly developing field bringing together a wide array of interests, proceed to the forefront of the latest technologies in testing, and with the implementation of innovations. We want to collect knowledge, develop them, continue to build partnerships with industry stakeholders and become a catalyst of the innovations and long term foster of the development of the university and the entire region in all aspects of 3D solutions.

Profile Description

PTE 3D is tightly connected to several interdisciplinary projects and tenders between the various University Faculties such as: PTE MS Medi Skill Lab, PTE-E-Health projects, Neurorehabilitation and Human-Machine Research Center or an education development cooperation with Zinemath co. Ltd. and Ottobock Hungária Ltd.
In the initial stage of the project the 3D working group was formed as the part of the Szentágothai Research Center, bringing together researchers and students from UOP FEIT, UOP FMVA, UOP MS, UOP FS and UOP FBE.
Already at the early stage of the project number of prominent Hungarian experts made presentation on 3D project at UOP.
In response to the professional cooperation the I. International Interdisciplinary 3D Conference was held in September 2015.
As it was so successful a second Conference was held in October 2016, following with the upcoming third one in 5-6th of October 2017 (http://conference.pte3d.hu/).
The conferences are planned to be the 3D project’s professional platform and will be organized on a regular basis.

The initial period of the 3D Project had been completed, which involved creating personal researches.
Research teams have already been organized around the 3D project. Besides developing their researches, the teams have already started to involve industrial partners.
Interdisciplinary researches have started on a wide range of specialties as the result of the researching teams’ cooperation.
Our short-term plan is establishing an Innovation Center at the university, which will give the opportunity for the citizens of OUP and Pécs to take effective part in R&D activities.
We would like to materialize our current projects in the medium-term, and the long-term plan is complete service portfolio, based on 3D technology.

Head of PTE 3D Project
