They are called " the Jimmy Choo Horseshoes " , but not only the design will attract riders and coaches .
The Australian CSIRO Titanium Technologies company claims to have made a lighter by using titanium instead of traditional cast aluminum horseshoe.
They claim that the shoe can be 100 grams lighter , which could mean that the horses run faster in races .
Maybe 100 grams may not seem much, but as Clive Woodward says - who was knighted after leading the British team glory Rugby World Cup 2003 - the smallest margins can make a big difference.
Unlike a pair of Jimmy Choo shoes , which can cost more than $ 3,200 (about 41,000 pesos) - a set of four titanium horseshoes only costs $ 560 (about 7,300 pesos).
" I intend to develop confidence and horse racing team ," he told CNN John Barnes, an expert in working conCSIRO titanium Titanium Technologies. "We still believe we can further reduce the weight ," he added .
To produce the Titanium model , scientists scanned the hooves of a horse with a handheld device before creating the design software , the company said through a press release that its title was referring to the famous designer originally from Malaysia .
"Four horseshoes as were printed in a few hours! " According to CSIRO.
"We decided as a team when we tried to make people understand the potential of additive manufacturing and you do not need to be an expert designer," Barnes said.
"Advances in 3D scanning are an easy and affordable way to get a customized product that has a maximum design flexibility."
"We can use titanium in many ways."
Richard Perham, jockey in chief of the British Racing School in Newmarket , England, said the new technology has potential.
" My job as coach is to make riders better understand and take advantage of the finer points ," Perham told CNN. " So if you add all those elements and those 100 grams , I think there will be an advantage. Portion Every little counts."
