The GOLEM project's printed evolved robot (2000). The white body was
designed through evolutionary simulation and then fabricated using a
3D printer. Wires and motors were placed manually.
Science iction author Cory Doctorow said, “I'm of the opinion that science
iction writers suck at predicting the future. We mostly go around describing
the present in futuristic clothes.”

What are the futuristic clothes of 3D print-
ing and design technologies? We'll soon have more material options, better
printing resolution, faster fabrication speed, and lower machine costs. There
will be new applications and unexpected new objects made. And after that?
