manufacturing machines that are bursting out of the factory and
into schools, kitchens, hospitals, even onto the fashion catwalk.
Fabricated describes our emerging world of printable
products, where people design and 3D print their own creations as
easily as they edit an online document.
A 3D printer transforms digital information into a physical
object by carrying out instructions from an electronic design file,
or 'blueprint.' Guided by a design file, a 3D printer lays down
layer after layer of a raw material to 'print' out an object.
That's not the whole story, however. The magic happens when you
plug a 3D printer into today's mind-boggling digital
technologies. Add to that the Internet, tiny, low cost electronic
circuitry, radical advances in materials science and biotech and
voila! The result is an explosion of technological and social
innovation.
Fabricated takes the reader onto a rich and fulfilling
journey that explores how 3D printing is poised to impact nearly
every part of our lives.
Aimed at people who enjoy books on business strategy, popular
science and novel technology, Fabricated will provide
readers with practical and imaginative insights to the question
'how will this technology change my life?' Based on hundreds of
hours of research and dozens of interviews with experts from a
broad range of industries, Fabricated offers readers an
informative, engaging and fast-paced introduction to 3D printing
now and in the future.
Hod Lipson and Melba Kurman put innovative technologies into context. Lipson is a leading researcher and speaker on 3D printing, digital materials, and the transformative power of intelligent machines. His lab at Cornell University has pioneered interdisciplinary research in 3D printing, product design, artificial intelligence, and smart materials. Kurman is an author and technology analyst who covers game-changing technologies in language that intelligent (and busy) non-experts can understand.
