摘要
In this, The First Lady of Emerging Technologies coins a new term - "Internet of 3D Printed Products". She is showing us a third kind emerging future she is coining as: "Internet of 3D Printed Products". Internet has given rise to two major changes in our lives. The real life collaboration enabled by Internet of People has been brought to us with various social networking technologies. The real life monitoring and managing enabled by Internet of people has been brought to us by various Machine to Machine (M2M) technologies.Now, we are looking at a third kind emerging future I am coining as: "Internet of 3D Printed Products". In "Internet of 3D Printed Products," we are looking at not only intangible services, but tangible goods will be delivered as well to our computers over the Internet. We will be able to receive or create goods in digital form, and we will be able to three-dimensional (3D) print them and turn them into physical objects. These printed objects are changing our life in major areas such as in healthcare. These changes include 3D printing of specialized robot parts, 3D printing of transplanted jaw, 3D printing helping grow new bones with scaffolding, and 3D printing drugs, and newer models for training of engineers, and 3D printing of tactile aids for visually impaired.
