has developed a new direct printing method that will allow the automaker to print a customer's fingerprint onto the hood of the buyer's own Porsche 911.The design will cost customers €7,500 — about $8,154 — on top of the $97,400 car.Porsche has developed a direct printing method that will allow "high quality" designs to be printed onto its vehicles, and wants to start by placing Porsche 911 customers' fingerprints onto the hood of their cars.
The customers will be a part of the whole printing process with an understanding of how their fingerprints will be used. The printing itself will be done through Porsche Centers and the Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur in Zuffenhausen, Germany. Porsche plans on allowing other customer-specific designs to be printed in the future but is focusing on the fingerprint hood design for now.The fingerprint design will be printed onto the Porsche 911 hoods using a print head that precisely paints three-dimensional designs.The printer utilizes three components: robots, and application and paint technology. Porsche claims the "robot" component is used in the programming and managing of the printer and sensors.
