Today, I am going to tell you four short stories about children, about you, and about seemingly incredible dreams. The story takes place in Australia, the United States, China and France. Let's see what a wonderful and interesting story happened when dreams come across 3D printing .
Story 1: "Scientist, I want a dragon"
The first story happened in Australia. The protagonist Sophie is a 7-year-old girl who wrote to CSIRO, a research institution in Australia, and expressed her wish to have a dragon.
The little girl wrote in the letter: "I don't know if you can give me a dragon. If it doesn't work, it doesn't matter. If the dragon is a girl, I will call her toothless; if it is a boy, call it Stewart. I will raise it on the green grass, feed it with fish, wear a collar; if it is injured, I will treat it. I will play with it every weekend."
Have you ever had a lot of naive dreams when you were young? Want to pick a star from heaven? Want to have magical magic? Or still doing such a dream! Scientists received such a letter and could only write an apology letter on the blog saying that they could invent polymers, insect repellents and wireless networks, but there was no way to create a one-stop deal.
Many people have called CSIRO's scientists to help, including the "no teeth" hometown - "How to Train Your Dragon".
In the end, the scientists in the Melbourne manufacturing laboratory, using titanium alloy 3D printed the "How to Train Your Dragon" protagonist "No Teeth". "Titanium is very hard and very light, so this dragon will be a flying master," the scientists said.
Sophie is very happy, she thinks Australian scientists can do anything.
Story 2: "Mom, I want to hug you"
Alex Pring from Groveland, Florida, is a boy born with no right arm. He is 6 years old this year. His life wish is to truly embrace his mother with his arms.
Alex's mother knows that to realize her son's simple wish, she needs to pay $40,000 for a controlled prosthetic, but she can't afford it. Dr. Manero learned that he wanted to help the boy. His team decided to use a 3D printer to realize the prosthetic wish of the one-armed boy and use what he learned to activate and drive the arm through his biceps.
Some 3D printer manufacturers donated some materials, and the entire team spent seven weeks of free time doing the prosthetic, for a total of $350.
After Alex got on the prosthetic, he opened his mouth and smiled and gave his mother a hug – this is the first time he can open her hands and hug her. The people at the scene all have tears in their eyes. The little boy quickly adapted to the arm and he gradually learned to move simple and shook hands.
Manero put their designs online so others can download them for free and improve them. After that, you can make another palm for only $20, and you can make another arm for $40 to $50. Manero said: "My mother should educate me to apply what I have learned. We should use the knowledge we have learned to make the world a better place. Alex's expression when he first installed his prosthetic is invaluable."
Seeing the smile of the little boy, you will believe that technology will change life, and the world will be getting better and better.
Story 3 - "I drew a cake, can I print it out for her"
Children are faced with an unknown world, and they are also the most imaginative and creative group. So 3D printing practitioners, can you do something small for them?
The story begins with a 3D printing event attended by the Magic Monkey Network. A six-year-old girl draws a cake with a piece of paper and a pen, which says “Happy birthday to my mother!†and quietly pointed to the mother around me. The staff of the Magic Monkey Network, "Can you print this cake 3D to her?" So the Monkey Network decided to fulfill this desire for the children, and created a project that changed the graffiti to 3D. The reason is very simple, just expecting to realize the little dreams of the children.
What is the final result? Still have to let the children talk! When the children see their own graffiti turned into a living thing in their hands, the excitement, the dream is like this into reality...
Let’s take a look at the cool fighters under the control of a small man, and after the 3D printing, it looks like this:
If you want to realize this little dream, it is very simple. Just log in to the Monkey Network and upload your child's paintings to the “3D Graffiti†page of the website, then select the size and you can wait. After a few days, the 3D printed work will be delivered to your doorstep. Of course, big friends can also play, childlike this thing, but regardless of age!
Story 4 - "I want to play with vegetables"
I believe that many people have this experience: even the swindlers let the children eat vegetables and eat fruits, and the meal of a chicken and a dog jumps to leave a shadow on the child's young mind. Have you ever thought that one day, bear children can be friends with fruits and vegetables?
A French designer named Bernier launched a project for children. He assembled vegetables into various interesting ways through 3D printers, such as submarines, racing cars, helicopters, etc. Accessories include wheels and machines. Wings, propellers and cockpits, children can mix them with vegetables to create a variety of toys they want.
During the event, when Bernier put the parts and various vegetables and fruits on the table together, the children flocked and started the “building blocks toy†and assembled the potatoes, carrots and apples into the form they wanted.
The combination of nature and technology can produce wonderful chemical reactions, just like the combination of 3D printing and fruits and vegetables, which is exactly what designers want to achieve – developing children's unlimited creativity.
So Mom and Dad don't think that 3D printing is far away from you. It can actually exist in every aspect of your life. This high-tech to the future, shouldn't your baby be the first to participate and feel?
The advancement of science and technology stems from people's yearning for a beautiful dream. 3D printing is making a lot of impossibility possible, the next one to realize the wish, maybe you, me, him.
