3- Dimensional printers have a lot of use in a world pretty much consumed by technology. I for one find it as an innovative way to upgrade the concept of printing. Regular printing would normally be used for books, news papers, turning in assignments for school, or flyer's to get the word out about an event. However most of these thing have become digital and are slowly making the regular 2-dimensional print a tad bit obsolete. Books and news papers can be found directly online so printing them is becoming pointless. Teachers have started to make their students turn in assignments online and if there's an event going on the quickest way for it to gain attention is by putting it on social media sites like Twitter, Facebook, Instagram. On the other hand, 3-dimensional printing has changed the game significantly.
3-Dimensional printing has shown to be an important factor for many occupations and companies in general. . Unlike other newly developed forms of technology (Phones, Tablets etc.) the 3-dimensional printer can directly help the general public in terms of a persons well being. For example, hospitals have begun to use 3-dimensional printer to print out important medical devices that are specified for the patient who needs to us them. There are also signs that 3-dimensional printers can be used to print organs like the heart and other important arteries.
Even though 3- dimensional printing comes at a major cost ( $100,000 to be exact), I believe it's worth it. This type of technology can be abused as well but the impact it could have on the world could prove to be greater than the possible worst case scenario. I don't believe the public should have free use of it. This sort of technology should be use more so to help those who need it. Even if the public could have access to it not many people would find a good reason to use it. 3-dimensional printing is bound to only get bigger and bigger cause the need for this sort of technology is much greater then type we have currently available to us. The only way I see this not working out is if the "black market" got a hold of it
