A GAME CHANGER | "REAL" 3D PRINTING 
 
Discovery consists of seeing what everybody has seen and thinking what nobody else has thought. - Albert Szent-Györgyi

For sometime, The Insider has believed that 3D printing has only scratched the surface of the impact it will have in both the commercial and residential market.  Then I watched Chemist Joseph DeSimone's TED Talk and was blown away.

"We were inspired by the Terminator 2 scene for the T-1000," DeSimone said.
"Why couldn't you have an object rise out of a puddle in real time with essentially no waste?"

Chemist Joseph DeSimone and and co-inventors developed a technology they call Continuous Liquid Interface Production (CLIP) that harnesses powers of light and oxygen in a printer that brings designed objects quickly into existence from small reservoirs of elastic material with sophisticated properties.  In layman's terms it is super cool and more effective than todays technology in overcoming many of todays 3D Printing limitations.

"3D printing is actually a misnomer; it is actually 2D printing over and over again," DeSimone said.  "There are mushrooms that grow faster than 3D printed parts."

If DeSimone and his co-inventors are able to bring their invention to market the applications are endless.  Also, if and when they are able to get the price point down for the residential user The Insider will be first inline.
