3D printers, disrupting the market of physical objects. — Alexander Lervik, TEDx
Saturday, September 19th, 2009Alexander Lervik is giving us:
The background of copyright
- Asia used to copy everything and produce it just cheeper.
- Later the peer2peer technology changed the music industry, reulsting in Radiohead allows the people that download their record to decide the price.
3D printers will change all industries.
And the future
- What if we could apply the same methods to duplicate physical object, as furnitures in the same way we copy music today?
- 3D printers will allow us to replicate any object to a minimal cost. Everything will become intellectual property.
- Everyone can download new fashion objects when 3D printers are in the homes.
What can we print today?
- We can combine materials as hard — soft, transparent — non-transparent for now.
- Metal allready work.
- Fabrics is currently in plastics. The structure works, but there’s probably five to ten years until there will be printable cotton.
Probably we will be able to print mobile phones.
Alexander finnish this talk with an excellent parahprase of Jill Bolte Taylor’s Stroke of insight by holding up a 3D print of a his brain.
