German design group Sonice Development GmbH built this large-scale printer, called the Facade Printer. It’s basically a fancy, computer-controlled paintgun. It seems they have come a long way since we first covered their project back in 2006. Anyone ever hook this up to GRL’s L.A.S.E.R. Tag? [via dudecraft]

I want one of these to make a giant mural sized Seurat.
Awesome!
Not to deny the awesomness of this whole thing, but isn’t this more of a dot matrix printer as opposed to an inkjet?
They differ only in the way that they project pigment onto a surface. An inkjet printer throws a droplet of ink across a short distance to the paper, while a dot-matrix printer uses wires to impact a ribbon against the paper. Both create a matrix of dots.
