LEGO designer and JK Brickworks YouTube channel host Jason Allemann has designed a printer that will scan a pixelated image and reproduce it as a LEGO mosaic. The Bricasso was constructed using parts from the LEGO robotics kit Mindstorms EV3. It uses 1x1 LEGO plates to reproduce images on a 16x16 build platform in up to nine different colors. You can find out more about the Bricasso over on 3DPrint.com: http://3dprint.com/77532/bricasso-lego-3d-printer/
