  • 3D printing is not just a cool technology for rapid prototyping,
    modelling and specialist one-off products. It is a fundamental
    building block of the ‘4th industrial revolution’ that has the
    potential to transform the way in which production and consumption are
    connected. This talk explores how this is happening using examples
    from medical prosthetics, aerospace, disaster relief, and education.
    Tim Minshall is a Reader in Technology and Innovation Management at Cambridge University Engineering Department and a Fellow of Churchill College. His research, teaching and outreach is focused on open innovation, the adoption of new technologies, the development of engineering skills, and the growth of the Cambridge high tech cluster.
    He is a Non-Executive Director of St John's Innovation Centre , a Visiting Research Fellow at the Institute of Technology, Enterprise and Competitiveness (ITEC) at Doshisha University , and a member of the IET's Innovation and Emerging Technologies Policy Panel . He is a member of advisory / steering committees for groups including ideaSpace, Cambridge University Entrepreneurs, Cambridge i-Teams, and 100% Open .

    He is a recipient of a University of Cambridge Pilkington Prize for Teaching Excellence and aRoyal Academy of Engineering/ExxonMobil Excellence in Teaching Award .
    This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

    Great technology. This would really help make life better. However, wouldn't we still need to move or transport the raw materials and parts required for these 3D printers to work with? Just wondering!

    "Choose the right tool for the job" -3D printing is excellent for prototyping / optimising design into the real world at low volume. Large scale we can use it to print more organic housing and other structures. A 3D printer cannot beat injection moulding or vacuum forming for cost/time.

    What are the energy requirements of these printers and are there limits on the type of plastic that can be used as material?

    Lesson learned:
    production + consumption = $USA
    $China = production + $transportation + $transportation + $retail
    Awesome talk and great energy!
    Thanks TEDdy!

    Did I just watch a video about 3D printing showing a video about 3D printing?

    For a long time in America, from the 1940"s, workers in this country have been enslaved to work for a company or small business to carry out their creative vision of producing new products. Now with 3D printing, we can go back to the days when a single at-home entrepreneur can create new products and sell on Amazon or Ebay or trade or craft shows.

      the industrial revolution destroyed custom manufacturing. now with 3d printer. we will go back before the industrial revolution but with a modern twist in it. this is really a good thing.

      David Hernandez maybe this link can answer part of your question ;-)

      I read an article a few months ago about non profit-organisations working together to tackle the global housing crisis, they have managed to build a house using a 3D Printer they created early this year in the U.S. A bit late but hope it answers your question

    How's that working out I can't even buy what's available becouse they sold out

    3D Hub is kicking all the DIY/hobby level printers off and is opting to just network services for expensive/industrial printers... just FYI.

    Hold on Let me 3-D print that for you

    • @vhanda99
      @vhanda99 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Or just print on paper like we normally do. I got your point.

    It's still at the fascinating toy stage as far as the general public is concerned. I think there is no real intention of empowering the people, just the opposite, really. People will be forced to buy "printing keys" to print things. "Jail breaking" your 3D printer will become an illegal act. The problem isn't technology. The problem is people. IMO

      Alfred Wheeler how do you jailbreak a printer, my friend in Afghanistan is asking

    @ballogramshapes973 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    3D Hubs, smh... They removed their find a local makers feature to become their own production facility. There's an opening to make another program that links you up to local printers for who wants to reintroduce this!

    Seriously, he ironically called it. Another tedious lecture from an engineer. Go to a TED talk for a supply chain lecture. Next time send a designer.
