Prezi video: #3D printing by Lisa Harouni

In the video she explains how innovative and amazing 3D printing will be once it is brought to our lives. Making manufacturing way easier. This is really interesting since it is a process involving several parts, starting from a sketch of an idea, creating and designing the 3D object or idea using software or programs, continuing with programs that perform file rolling and ending with printing the object in three dimensions. This would be really interesting for product designers, retailers and many other industries. Within time, it could decrease its prices, making it accessible to all public. Another significant advantage of 3D printing is speed. Although 3D printing of an object may take hours or even whole days, it is still much faster than usual production methods, such as injection molding. Prototyping, one of the most popular professional uses of 3D printing, can be done in the company with little or no waiting time, and design iterations can be implemented and printed at the moment. As far as the consumer focus, 3D printing can help create custom trimmings and decorations, practical household items, figurines and much more. However, this technology has the greatest advantages for cases of professional use, on which this article will focus. 

As mentioned in the video, you can have it conveniently as a desktop with a retail price of 300 dollars, this of course, depends on the size of the machine. As I have heard, some car brands, for example, use additive manufacturing to produce certain parts of the interior of the car or engine components. The same is true in the aerospace sector, where weight optimization is paramount importance. In fact, 3D printing technologies can increase the strength and strength of parts while using lighter materials. However, obstacles have to be overcome in order to make 3D printing viable for end-use items. Parts must be certified, especially for highly regulated industries such as aerospace. They must be identical for obtaining AM certification, which requires extremely accurate 3D printers and standardized processes and materials. But since this was back in 2012, technology has improved regarding 3D printing, you can now purchase personalized products by freelancers or just directly in some markets.

W14.2 Race and Ethnicity_Kim Minji

1. summary Race is rooted in the idea of biologically classifying humans based on physical differences such as skin color, and ethnicity refers to social characteristics that are related to race but shared by a group of humans. The debate over how to understand race has continued, but the best way is to recognize that socially constructed boundaries overlap with biological/genetic factors. By recognizing the overlap between the two, you have a better understanding. 2. interesting point The phenomenon was interested in the phenomenon to adapt to native culture.It felt that the characteristic of their culture is gradually disappearing because of their culture is gradually disappearing, and it felt ironic that the native culture of the current development of the current development of the current developed countries.I thought that it is important to protect their traditional traditional culture and maintain diversity of culture. 3. question There are people who do racial discrimination.Ho...
