story imageIntel plans to offer a consumer grade 3D printed robot for $1600 later this year. Jimmy, a desktop robot , will include an Intel chip and be programmable using open source tools.
The hardware designs will be freely available online, allowing anyone with access to a 3-D printer to generate and assemble the basic parts.

The grand vision is to lower the barrier of entry to robotics.

That might help those in the latest generation who have not really learned to cook. I wonder if 3D printed food will become a fad or whether this will, in contrast, make "all natural" food even more "good", in the minds of consumers?
