"Purchase Activated Manufacturing"

High-Low Tech, a research group at the MIT Media Lab, integrates high and low technological materials, processes, and cultures. Our primary aim is to engage diverse audiences in designing and building their own technologies by situating computation in new cultural and material contexts, and by developing tools that democratize engineering. 

"triking data was from EV owners who also had solar panels. From 7 a.m. to midnight, they used about one-fourth as much power from the grid as the typical household, because they were getting power from their rooftops and often selling power back to the grid. In other words, they took very little from the grid when demand was high - at times even helping to increase supply - and took much more from the grid when demand was low. They helped smooth ou"

"n traditional manufacturing, but its cost, efficiency and detail already offset that for some companies. 3D printing consists of laying down powdered material and using a laser, electron beam or other method to solidify just what's needed for the product. The"

Tesla CEO Elon Musk says that by openly sharing its patent portfolio with the rest of the world, his company will help expand the market for electric cars.

the burgeoning commercial usage of Contiki, Dunkels left his job as a professor at the Swedish Institute of Computer Science and founded Thingsquare, a startup focused on providing a cloud-based back-end for Contiki devices. The idea is to make it easy for developers to connect their hardware devices with smartphones and the web. Thingsquare manages the servers, and provides all the software necessary to manage a device over the web.

d, that may be the true obstacle keeping us from seeing a 3-D printer in every home. From those very first Model T's that rolled off the production line in 1908, people knew what cars could do. That utility isn't nearly as obvious for today's consumer 3-D printers. At this point, for most, the technology

WE are beginning to witness a paradox at the heart of capitalism, one that has propelled it to greatness but is now threatening its future: The inherent dynamism of competitive markets is bringing costs so far down that many goods and services are becoming nearly free, abundant, and no longer subject to market forces.
