Future Technology 3D Printing

Guess who's back! Hi everyone, I am here to share what I have done in Digital Technology. We are tasked to research, & design a future technology that the future generation can use and 3D print it. If you are wondering, 3D print is any of various process in which material is joined or solidified under computer control to create a three-dimensional object.

In my Digital Learning Objective you will see my design that I made from ‘Tinkercad’ and the finished product.

Individually, each student in the class are told to research a piece of future technology,
create a virtual design on tinkercad and show it to Mr. Carter when it’s done. As I research,
all the things that I’m seeing is hard to do (obviously, it was created by professionals). A lot of future technology ideas came up to my mind such as laser scalpel, tracked ambulance stretcher, robot dresser, and more. Then there's this one thing that interest me, it was the Video Frame! I decided to do this one since it wouldn’t take a lot of time and it’s easy to make. I designed my technology on tinkercad for about 6 period of the subject. Tinkercad is kind of strange for me to use because I haven’t use it before, but as I work through I am learning it little by little. Since I’m ready to 3D print my design, I asked Mr. Carter “How am I going to print this Mr.?”, then he told me to search ‘up studio’ on youtube and watch it. The next period of DTE that we had was when I printed my technology from the 3D printer.

The photo above is a 3D printer that we used to print our designed technology. There is a filament at the side of the machine that is connected to the printer head (pen). My design was printed at the print bed of the machine and this is what it looks like: 

It was a great experience to design and print my own design.

Questions:

Do you have some future technology ideas in mind that you could share to us?

Have you tried using the 3D printer before?
