A Green Project in Abu Dhabi - Masdar HQ


The latest green project named Masdar HQ in Abu Dhabi has big planning, and I really mean it. This is going to be the world's first positive energy building, which means it creates more energy than it may consume.

The worth of this project is expected to cost about $300 million, and it will be an impressive center piece for the Masdar City, which will be a $22 billion development stretching out the Abu Dhabi. This project is the vision for our greener future.

The roof pier will be the first thing to be hosted into the place, which will be all covered with solar panels that will generate enough energy for its own construction. The complete size of the structure will be about 1.3 million square feet.
Now this is what they call Intelligent Design.

3D printer from Thinglab


Well here is an amazing device, which can let you take print in 3D. This device can actually make your computer based 3D projects come to life. You can easily use this printer like any other inkjet printer as said by the Thinglab. It can print complex engineering projects, working concept models with upto 16 million colors and 700 dpi.

This is ideal for product design development, jewelry design, and architectural models. 3D printing is fast and cost effective as claimed by Thinglab. It does seem good if you are about to give a presentation then you can make a 3D model in just a few hours. One thing for sure, this device does not made for the home use, it is entirely for commercial and official works.

This device is available by the Thinglab and it costs around $40000. Therefore, it is definitely not for home use.
Here is a video explaining how it works.
