Senior citizens might really like – and use – a 3D printer. That’s the surprising, and money-saving, conclusion of a new study I co-authored: 3D printers can save arthritis patients money by more cheaply manufacturing plastic gadgets that help them do routine tasks like open jars and put on socks.
This is just scratching the surface of the potential for 3D printing. Imagine its potential for impacting world trade. Why manufacture X in China and fill shipping containers with X for expensive distribution when X can be 3D printed anywhere?
