The 3D printing systems connected to the internet make the "internet of physical things" possible. The system is based on the idea that the CAD/CAM (Computer-Aided Design/ Computer-Aided Manufacturing) tools can operate remotely. The fully automatized 3D printing tools require only CAD drawings. The new high-temperature 3D printers can work with the strongest metals like Wolfram and Titanium.
The system uses the metal powder that plasma or lasers can melt like in a plastic printing system. Then laser scanners and laser machine tools system finalize the object. The system can use real-time images to detect things like bubbles inside the object. The system can operate in a vacuum that denies the oxygen effect to the object.
The laser systems and high-resolution scanners can copy even the scratches from the master object to copy. The price of those systems is not very high. It is about $ 80,000- $1000,0000.
3D printers can make merchandise like machine parts or even weapons. If the user doesn't want to draw an image for CAD, it is possible to scan the thing, that the user wants to copy by 3D printers. The scanner system can scan the merchandise on another side of the Earth. The CAD program or the AI can transform the scanned 3D image into a CAD image. And send those drawings to the 3D printer through the Internet.
But the 3D printers can also connected with the AI. That means the users of the system can use generative AI or the LLM to create the CAD model for the CAD. The user must only say or write "Make me the rocket engine for a rocket like Falcon 9".
Then, the AI searches for details of the rocket, from the net. Then it can find the other required details from the material database, there are details about how thick the material should be if the system uses things like Titanium.
This type of machine can turn any image into a physical form. The Neuralink microchip that is connected to the person's brain causes ideas that maybe, someday the computer can read what a person thinks. The CAD/CAM system can turn those images from the brain into real physical merchandise. Maybe that thing is not possible yet.
But it's possible. The AI-controlled system can create merchandise if the person thinks things like the vase. The AI searches images of the vases and then shows them to the user. The user selects the best of them. The system can use the same method as the police drawers when they create images of suspects. The system follows spoken and written orders to modify the image. And when the user says that the image is good, the system can send it to a 3D printer.
