3D printing can be used for about a million useful things—and one more industry is about to benefit from this wonderful technology: solar energy.
Photovalic (PV) solar panels are more common than you might think—remember that old, cheap calculator you used to have? It was powered by a very small PV panel. Larger PV panels are used in an array to provide electricity to homes or power grids.
1. Make sure there’s really a need + a customer base for your idea.
You want to be sure you’ll actually have customers, right? Even if it’s a good idea, a small customer base will mean your product won’t be wildly successful.
A limited customer base means limited sales and limited profits.
We already have a blog post about how to run a successful crowdfunding campaign.
You’ve ticked off those boxes and you think you’re ready to get going, but have you thought about what NOT to do?
Let’s look at why Kickstarter projects fail.
One of the TV shows that gets talked about in our office every week is Shark Tank. Everyone wants to talk about who was on the show and how well they did.
But our favorite topic is the Sharks themselves.
We love listening to the advice they give out on the show and in interviews, so we decided to put together a list of our favorite pieces of advice from Shark Tank.
Raspberry Pi is a “system on a chip” model that integrates all components of a computer onto a single chip. It was invented in 2012 to help computer science classes be more empowered to reach kids and help them learn programming before they lose interest in STEM fields.
These little chips, which run between $25 and $35 dollars, have developed a huge community following—more than 4.5 million have been sold in the last three years.
Today I want to talk about some trends that 2015 will bring to engineers. Although they’re interesting to everyone, it’s engineers who will have the biggest impact—if the world wants to have robots in 2015, where do you think they’ll come from?
That’s right. Engineers.
So you’ve come up with an idea for an invention.
It’s the best idea you’ve ever had. It’s going to change how the industry functions.
But there’s a problem.
You don’t know what to do next.
Kids are amazing learners. They pick up on lessons with ease and carry them for the rest of their lives.
But because kids remember everything, it’s extremely important to introduce complex ideas to them in a fun and age-appropriate way.
One field that often loses kids’ interest after elementary school is STEM: science, technology, engineering, and math. Although kids tend to go into their school years with an enthusiasm for scientific discovery, only about 16% of students leave school with the same level of enthusiasm.
We hear a lot of concerns here at RevPart about what to do while developing a prototype, so here are some answers for our most frequently asked questions…
