3D Printing | September 02, 2016 |
Hey you.
Hope things are well.
I'll be in Vegas for the upcoming Labor Day weekend.
Don't worry, in this digest, I bring you a couple of interesting/entertaining developments.
Anyway, as always: feel free to hit reply and send me an email directly. I love questions and comments (even if it's unrelated to this digest)
Until next time my friend,
Dilanka | AI is shaping the future of commerce  Braintree’s GM of Mobile, Aunkur Arya, sat down with Pinterest’s Head of Commerce, Michael Yamartino, to talk about how Pinterest is using AI technologies to advance the buying experience.

| | nature - youtube.com Quite interesting to see how Paleontologists are using 3D Printing to find the cause of death of LUCY - a 3.2 million-year-old human relative. What's even more interesting is how 3D Printing will affect the field of paleontology by making these file(s) available for any amateur paleontologist (or anyone else) to download, 3D Print, and come up with their own theories.
With the internet, and 3D Printing, this type of thing might even further democratize fields like paleontology and make the process of innovation/discovery even faster.
Very interesting stuff. | | stratysys - youtube.com Stratasys has recently unveiled two new pieces of game-changing additive manufacturing technology: the Infinite-Build 3D Demonstrator and the Robotic Composite 3D Demonstrator -- which could be used for 3D Printing aircraft parts, among other things. This came out last week, but I forgot to include it in the digest. | | Katie Armstrong - 3dprintingindustry.com In Texas, a 12-year-old girl discovered an old skull of a woman. Her father wanted to keep a record/replica of his daughter's rare find, so they used 3D Printing to print out a replica for safe keeps. Fun stuff. | | lowes - lowesinnovationlabs.com So, LOWES has allegedly started to ramp up their Innovation Labs for customers. What is it? Think of it like a maker space full of DIY possibilities (including 3D Printing) with the help of Lowes employees. It's essentially a Kinkos for creating anything you imagine. Among other possibilities, this means that the average Joe could walk into a Lowes and create prototypes of anything. | | Richa Malhotra - livescience.com An Egyptian mummy's head and face have been reconstructed with forensic science and 3D printing, offering scientists a tantalizing glimpse of the individual's life and death. Interesting. | | | You are receiving this email because you believe that the best startup articles and videos are made by active members of the startup community.
