b.
Rapid prototyping is the name given to a host related technologies that are used to fabricate
physical objects directly from Computer Aided Design (CAD) data sources. The methods are
generally similar to each other in that they add and bond material in layer wise-fashion to form
objects. Some of the methods are Stereo-lithography (SLA), Selective laser sintering (SLS) and
Fused deposition modeling (FDM).
