They have already taken the 3D printed chess board to the Elizalde Institute where it is in use, and the group has moved on to their next project which will combine computers and robotics as they create an audio module for a talking board. There are references for the visually impaired around the edges of the 3D printed chess board in Braille, as well as with numbers and letters. The pieces themselves stack together, creating a unique modern look. The project took only a month, as they 3D printed blue and white squares, each with holes in the center for the chess pieces. The students, hailing from Villa Maria in Cordoba, attend the Tecnoteca cultural and educational center there. Now, students in Argentina have used 3D printing to create a chess set for the blind and those with low vision at the Elizalde Institute. And this continues today, as artists around the world with a love and passion for ‘checkmate’ put their own spin on the chess board and its pieces.
The chess board remains consistent always, with 64 squares and 16 pieces for each player, but from the king to the pawn, we’ve often seen the moving parts created by artisans demonstrating stunning craftsmanship. Still, it is an ancient game of challenge and competition that humans have enjoyed for centuries.
Many-whether enthusiasts or not-would say that chess is one of the more difficult board games to master, under any condition.
