Our desire to fly is lifelong, as evidenced by the constant innovation in aerospace and drone technology. While flying isn't always safe for drones, a major advantage of designing and flying uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs) is that humans can gain a foothold on solid ground while taking control. Meanwhile, the skies are being flooded with more new drone designs on a daily basis.
In addition to the growing potential for consumer deliveries, drones are already being used for industrial tasks, including real estate surveying, agriculture, and crop production applications. Drones are used for mapping and search-and-rescue missions, which can involve delivering supplies when people can't reach certain remote areas.

With hundreds of millions of gaming enthusiasts in the US (and who knows how many more around the world), you will find a very few people with a good understanding of 3D printing technology and all it brings to the industry. Leisure activities such as playing board games generate billions of dollars in revenue globally each year and are currently expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13% through 2026.
Role-playing board games are enjoying a resurgence. More and more players are spending their time immersing themselves in fantasy worlds full of adventure, strategy, and colorful miniatures, bringing their characters to life. Since these 3D printed parts are often used in many games, they need to be more durable and retain their color. Board gamers and manufacturers also frequently 3D print custom game parts, boards and accessories.
Speaking of color, Solidfill uses the Color Jet technology, which is ideal for multicolored objects. It works with material similar to plaster and is typically used for architectural models or marketing materials, but there’s lots of other possible applications.

Diagnosis and treatment are more streamlined, and anatomically correct 3D printed medical models can be used as visual aids to inform patients and their families of medical conditions and upcoming surgeries. Surgical tools and guides can also be created. Here, too, fully patient-specific treatments are possible, as medical products can be individually adapted to the patient and the procedure – be it joint replacement or dental surgery.
Patients in need of limb replacements all over the world have benefited greatly from 3D printed prostheses and orthotics. With the capacity to work fast from a 3D scan, designs may be quickly engineered to fit kids and adults who may never have had a 3D printed orthotic or prosthesis that they were happy to wear.

Robotics has long been projected to play a significant part in the future, whether it is in the operation of large factories or the construction of settlements on the Moon or Mars. The field of robotics has grown increasingly ingrained in today's industrial applications and often acts as a complementing technology to 3D printing. The technologies have progressed a lot and they show no indications of slowing down.
3D printing can be utilized in a variety of ways in robotics. Prototyping is initially a big benefit in this field. Product development is expedited with models and prototypes produced and tested faster. Crucial feedback is being supplied quickly, thanks to the ability for any designer or engineer to iterate as needed. 3D printing can be used to make high-performance robots and 3D printed robotic hands, limbs, legs, and a range of other bionic devices. Electronics can also be included in 3D printed items. Finally, a variety of robotics modifications, such as housings and parts, can be created.
