[MUSIC] This concludes our course on | |
the 3D printing revolution. I hope that you learned some new concepts, | |
acquired some new tools, and heard some new stories. More importantly, I hope that this course enhanced your | |
understanding of how 3D printing works. And why this technology | |
revolutionized our economy. To wrap up, here are four key | |
lessons from this course. First, 3D printing is a new | |
low cost desktop technology that can be used by nearly anyone. Second, this technology allows us to | |
easily turn our ideas into objects and gives consumers the power to be creators. Third, 3D printing also blurs the divide | |
between the physical and the digital. It makes it easy to remix and | |
customize physical products. Fourth and finally by changing both the | |
roles of consumers the nature of objects, 3D printing will | |
revolutionize our economy. And change the way we live. There are many courses | |
in our specialization. We'll explore the 3D printing | |
ecosystem in more detail. The next course, | |
3D printing applications will examine how 3D printing is being used by large firms, | |
entrepreneurs and individuals to turn their ideas into objects and | |
to do things they couldn't do before. Thank you for | |
being part of our course community. I hope you enjoy the rest | |
of our specialization. [MUSIC] |
