Phase3D founder Niall O’Dowd sat down with the 3Degrees Discussions podcast to talk about innovation, entrepreneurship, and the future of part monitoring in additive manufacturing.

With a PhD in Structural Engineering from UC San Diego, Niall shares how his background in structural mechanics inspired the creation of Phase3D—a company focused on real-time, layer-by-layer inspection to reduce risk and improve quality in AM builds. The conversation covers the limitations of traditional monitoring methods, the importance of actionable data, and how Fringe Inspection™ is making in-situ process control more accessible and reliable for manufacturers.
