Last weekend was Maker Faire<\/a>, that special two days when makers from all over the world gather to dazzle and educate all those lucky enough to snag a ticket. As if the dozens of vendors weren’t enough, there were also inspiring talks. Plus, it’s hosted by the New York Hall of Science, so there’s general science exploration to enjoy as well.<\/p>\n There’s so much to see that you find yourself wishing you could exist in multiple places all at once.\u00a0Not yet equipped with such an ability, I had to pick and choose the talks and demos which was not always an easy choice to make. What I was particularly curious about was the maker process itself, and of course, 3D printing.<\/p>\n Below are some highlights of talks and new products that I particularly enjoyed. But first, the Astromech stars of the Faire, by\u00a0DroidBuilders<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\t\t
