We have always moved with this approach of sharing and educating people with what they can unlock with 3D printing.

We're on the brink of the next industrial revolution. Instead of buying things, you can make them on a printer. When you have a 3D printer, you can iterate more - what used to take months, now takes hours.

We're now able to 3D print in 200 different materials, from titanium to rubber, plastic, glass, ceramic, leathers, and even chocolate.

3D printing will massively reduce the cost of certain products as the cost of labor is removed.

Similar to computer technology in the '60s, 3-D printing is a universal technology that has the potential to revolutionize our life by enabling individuals to design and manufacture things.

We wanted people to 3-D-print anything, not just more 3-D printers.

The 3D-printing technology has been developing at a very rapid pace.

Startups are now creating specialized 3-D printers capable of producing everything from synthetic hamburgers to multi-story apartment buildings.

The next episode of 3D printing will involve printing entirely new kinds of materials. Eventually we will print complete products - circuits, motors, and batteries already included. At that point, all bets are off.

I'm an investor in MakerBot, which is a good example of the 'thingiverse'. The idea of applying collaboration and rapid iteration to things that we interact with and hold in our hands every day is super revolutionary.

3D printing has digitized the entire manufacturing process.

Creating life at the speed of light is part of a new industrial revolution. Manufacturing will shift from centralised factories to a distributed, domestic manufacturing future, thanks to the rise of 3D printer technology.

Even a small village in the middle of Africa with a 3D printer will have access to any good it can download. The world of the 'Star Trek' replicator is not far away.

Basically, any material you can squeeze, melt or generate into a powder, you can print.

We started MakerBot in 2009 and made a conscious decision to educate people with the possibilities they could do with 3D printing and share with people what is possible.

One of the criticisms we get is, 'Does the world need more plastic crap?' But you have to look beyond the plastic crap, to the design, to the experience, to the empowering nature of the MakerBot and the community.

3D printing is already shaking our age-old notions of what can and can't be made.

You can go from creating the design on your iPad to making the object on your MakerBot.

Our intention is that people use MakerBots to have a positive impact on the world.

The combination of human skills with technology will always be at the root of any solution to the future of making clothes.

If we could communicate at the speed of thought, we can augment our creativity with the low-level stuff that AI and robots and 3-D printers and fab labs and all that do.

I think the designs and creativity are limitless with 3-D-printed clothing.

Craft meets the machine in rapid fabrication. We can generate craft with the help of technology.

Most people don't feel empowered to make CAD models. The MakerBot Digitizer solves that problem.

He's computerized, but I won't let him come on cold. I created KITT. I understand the personality of the car.
