Pros and Cons of a 3-D printer.

When many people hear about a 3-D printer, the first thing that comes in their mind is how it can be used to make weapons. Even though that's mainly what's talked about, there is also a good side to 3-D printers.

The Tedi bear.

This special device is not just a toy for you're child, but it is also a monitor for those overprotective parents. This bear has a microphone, a thermometer, and sensors for the child's pulse and to keep track of their growing strength. It is able to be recorded on a near iOS or android device. There is also a microphone in case you want to talk to your baby. It is currently $99 to pre-order it. I believe it is a really cool devise, but not as cool as a baby vacuum.
