This lecture examines research related to the home use of additive manufacturing. We focus here on a comparison of costs associated with creating household objects at home using additive manufacturing versus purchasing them online. The research cited concludes that additive manufacturing may already represent "an economically attractive investment for the average U.S. household." This edition of the video series does not include the quiz, assessment, or assignment portion as mentioned in the lesson.
