3D printing seems to be the latest trend in hardware, and people are getting more and more aware about this impressive technology. At least, this is what this insightful 3D printing survey reveals. I have always been curious about how would people react to such a technology like 3D printing and some good folks have created this software to answer m questions.
The survey brings up interesting data which suggest that the world is getting ready for a complete shift regarding the industrialization of our societies. Can you imagine what would a world with 3D printing look like? You’d be able to create so many things inside your home, with your computer and a 3D printer: toys, garden tools, office things, screws, flowerpots, vessels, boxes and so, so many other things.

Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
