What excites me is the idea of cheap and accessible hardware! Assistant Professor, University of Toronto. There’s also lots of credit going to Elon for saying that ‘it’s going to cost 20k’, which reminds me of all the 3D LIDAR companies that have been saying ‘our LIDAR will only cost $100.

Because generating heat is an inescapable part of our metabolic processes, researchers have been working to turn a lightbulb moment—the idea of harnessing body heat so all that thermal energy isn’t wasted—into a practical device that yields electric power. Our bodies slough off a ton of heat too.

One of the benefits of using print electronics is being able to mass-produce at a low cost, says Gregory Whiting at the University of Colorado, Boulder, one of the principal investigators of the team working on the sensors. First up is a 3D-printed, biodegradable soil sensor that checks moisture and nitrogen levels.

Back then, Warnock already had a rough idea how to “Print Anything.” The time was right because of the imminence of three hardware developments: the first low-cost, bit-mapped personal computer, the first low-cost laser printer, and a decline in price of high-density memory chips.

Columbia University has announced the development of a tree structure that could capture carbon 1,000 times faster than a real tree. The idea is that it would be used to capture carbon emitted into the air by vehicles and aeroplanes. He believes the concept will be much more efficient than traditional windmills.

The goal, Musk said, is “a fundamental transformation for civilization as we know it” at what Musk guessed would be a very reasonable cost: under $20,000.

But it’s a challenging thing to do, and we haven’t yet figured out ways to do it at scale that are cost-effective and sustaining, meaning you’ve taken the carbon dioxide out and it stays out reliably. And so the cost of that right now is really, really high. But right now we’ve got some distance to go with any of these ideas.
