What is 3D printing?
A process for making a physical object from a three-dimensional digital model.
How does 3D printing work?
You start by cutting the object into tiny pieces,
these layers stick together to make a solid object.
What is the technology behind it?
In some methods they melting or softening materials to produce the layers.
Where would you find 3D printing?
- Libraries
- Computer Labs
- Offices
- Clinic
- Museum
Who would use 3D printing?
- Doctors
- Architectures
- Businesses
- Teachers
- Cooks
- Electronic workers
- Engineers

The UAE Nurses Association claims that one of the most difficult parts of their job is dealing with small children who have a fear of needles. Although the association has some tips and tricks like putting numbing cream to partially freeze the surface of the skin before injecting medicine, sometimes the anxiety levels of small children are so high that it is difficult to get them to hold still. If only there was an easier way to administer medicine within the syringe.

Some people like reading and just cant fit enough books on one shelf, and sometimes they want more than one book with them when they go out somewhere alone to relax or something. I thought of making a portable book shelf, that moves around with you, wherever you go, whenever you want. I think it will help all bookworms (people that love reading) in carrying their books around. Also it would be a great thing for schools to give to their students so instead of always holding too many books or going to your lockers every second.And if they carry their bags they can just get this shelf instead since it wont be that heavy as the bag.
The shelf can be helpful because most teenagers these days are too lazy to carry their books around and always want for something that they could walk around with freely without anything heavy on their backs; something they could drag. But since we aren't allowed to drag our bags along with us to our classes, we can use these shelves instead to carry our stuff.

People like having their most needed objects with them wherever they go and whenever, but sometimes they dont have anything to store these things in, when they go out (and also have it with them) so I thought about making a small bag/box which has a handprit scanner on the side and a button which you press ( a projecter) so it can show you everything inside the box and there is another button under it which opens the box for you to get your stuff out! There is a slot at the top of the box where you can drop anything you want into the box, and there is a smaller slot beside it where you drop your devices and it goes into a pocket so they wont break!
This should be helful because it stores people's valiables and they can carry it around by holding the the belt like rope on the sides, or wearing it around their shoulders, instead of holding your stuff.

Design Brief: 18/11/2016
I was thinking of making a product that helps people carry thir things around. I am aiming this product at people from all ages, since this is a problem going throwing lots of people. I will use TinkerCad!
I want to make this product because, even I struggle with carrying my things around.
