How 3-D Printing Is Transforming the Toy Industry - 0 views

  •  
    Taken from "Technology Review," this article touches on how 3D printing has effect the toy industry. Very basic article, just shows some of the potentials of 3D printing. Taken from Technology Review: "what's changed since the invention of 3D scanners and stereolithography -- now known by the more inclusive term 3D printing -- is that they now have the ability to directly translate real world objects into miniature versions of themselves."

Commentary; The Future Demands Attitude Adjustment; Trends: The newtechnology and the n... - 1 views

  •  
    Taken from Proquest abstract: "The fact is that deploying new technology is only one of the steps needed to soft-land in the future. Smart machines do not automatically catalyze us to smarter lives. Switching on the future entails more effort. For example, what good is going global on the Internet if your real-time allegiances remain nationalistic and ethnocentric? You can gloat over your portable equipment, but if you continue to run in place in unportable lifestyles, marinating for decades in the same apartment, the same city, the same country, the same profession, the same social ties, how portable are you?"

Chart of 3D Printers Below $20,000 - 0 views

  •  
    This site is a chart of 3D printers below $20,000. It shows the manufacturer, model, method, price, annual service cost, size & weight, build envelope, materials, material costs, speed, accuracy, finish of the final product, strengths, and weaknesses.
  •  
    With this kind of detailed information, you may consider a slightly different kind of feasibility report which is context specific. For example you may consider the feasibility of ERAU's DB campus acquiring such an item? You could consider need/usability and cost.

    this is really interesting. It is almost scary to know what they can do already with human tissue/limbs
  •  
    This is extremely intriguing. I didn't know that there was technology like this in existence, I always thought this topic was science fiction.
  •  
    It's all been very interesting while researching it. In response to Zack, I also didn't know how close they were to achieving this before I started this report. And to Val, it is a tad bit frightening to think what it could mean for the future, but I'm actually a little more scared of your topic, believe it or not!
