Altruism
The concept of sustainable components
The concept is hoping to create an information platform for service design that companies can Upload the 3D files of the parts to the "cloud memory" so that people can download and printed it out via 3D printers by themselves, and to build up its Yellow pages in the future will also be significant.
" New tech is always an opportunity ". The materials but also the cost of production are soaring in recent years, However, encouraged by the consumer market, continuingly purchasing brand new merchandise has become a vicious circle and the concept of cherishing your belongings has gradually vanished from our daily life.
Some things we're using in our daily life such as folding chairs and plastic boxes were discarded since some little parts of them were broken. Storing the STL files of these parts on the internet permanently is easier for people to repair. By doing this, people would know what role 3DP is playing in the future.
