Arduino is a cheap, open-source microcontroller. (A microcontroller is a programmable chip that can act as the brain of a machine.) Arduino is very popular in open hardware projects, from our [[CEB Press]] to [[Yobot]], where it controls yogurt fermentation, to [[Botanicalls]], where it tells you if your plants are underwatered. You can also fabricate one by yourself see:[[DIY Arduino]]

3D Printer

==Overview==

A 3D printer is an additive manufacturing technology that enables automated construction of complex sub-assemblies via layered deposition. The technology is similar to a traditional printer, but with an additional z axis. As a central backbone of [[Digital Fabrication]], the end goal of 3D printers is to be able to print anything.

==Details==
While 3D printers are additive, they bear a close resemblance to subtractive manufacturing [[CNC milling machines]].

==Product Ecology==

{{Product Ecology

|Product = {{3D Printer}}

|From=
* {{3D Scanner}}
* {{CAD}}
* {{Laser Cutter}}
* {{Bioplastic Extruder}}

|Uses=
* [[Bioplastic]]

|Creates=
* [[3D Prints]]

|Enables=
* [[Metal]] Casting
* [[Digital Fabrication]]

|Components=
* [[XYZ Table]]
* [[Motors]]
* [[Controller]]
* Spindle
* [[Extruder]]
* Feeder
* Tool Changer
}}

==Status==
See past work related to Factor e Farm at [[RepRap Build]].

Currently [[3D_Printer/Research_Development|3D printer designs are being researched]], with the goal of full integration into the [[Product Ecology]] of [[GVCS]] technologies.

3D printer technology is currently undergoing a flourishing of innovation. As a relatively new technology (2003), many experimental designs and techniques are being explored by thousands of groups worldwide.
