Technology Presentation

In this exercise you will research a recent development in 3D printing technology and prepare a 2 minute in-class presentation about it.

Learn About Five 3D Printing Technologies

Read this brief survey of additive manufacturing technologies and watch some cool videos.

Research

Pick one of the five technologies to research, or ask the instructor to assign one to you if you prefer. Find some interesting development related to that technology. It could be a new model of 3D printer based on that technology, or a novel application of the technology, or an industry forecast; whatever you think is interesting. You can do a Google search on the technology name, look on Reddit's r/3dprinting, or look at industry web sites like 3dprintingindustry.com.

Prepare

Write up your findings in a single slide and prepare a two-minute in-class presentation. Put your name on your slide. You can include a brief video clip if you have one. Your slide should include a link or citation where people can look for more details if they're interested.

Present

Give your presentation in class and hand in your slide as a PDF file inside a zip file in AutoLab.
