See3D
A non-profit organization that manages the printing and distribution of 3D printed models for people who are blind.
See3D organizes the printing and distribution of 3D printed models for people who are blind. Anyone who is blind/has low vision, or is a parent or teacher of someone who is blind, can make a request for a model.
If you would like to support our mission, you can donate to us.
Anybody with a 3D printer, old 3D prints, or 3D modeling skills can help See3D. Click below for more Information.
See3D now offers educational model kits that walk you through the model piece by piece. If you would like to request a model kit indicate that in the model description on the request form.

"See3D has been a wonderful and valuable resource for my students who are blind and visually impaired. They absolutely love the tactual models of their favorite movie characters such as R2D2 from Star Wars and the Minions."
