At Maker Faire Rome also the drone “pocket” is war between scientists with the robots of tomorrow

The 3D printer and “The House of Drones “, the home of the drones take off within an aviary of 300 square meters wide and 22 meters high, will be the main new features of Maker Faire Rome the leading European trade fair dedicated to innovation created by the makers , digital artisans .

It will take place this weekend, October 16 to 18 in the space of the citadel of the University of Rome La Sapienza.

Workshops, meetings, workshops and debates, 600 exhibitors and more than 700 inventions, these initiatives and the numbers of the third edition.

In mid-way between the exhibition space and pure a show with eyes fixed on the future, Maker Faire is three editions, the special showcase in which you can see and touch all those inventions that characterize the modern run-up to a size hi-tech and witness firsthand the genesis of creations destined anyway to revolutionize the concept of domestic dwellings, the world of art, sports, the transport sector or the normal activities in the kitchen.

Of everything and more, a true genius of the stage which will host all of the ideas, even the most extravagant, born of the mind of scientists decided to project itself more and more into the future.

Here is the 3D printer largest in the world: 12 meters high and used to produce portions of houses. The three-dimensional printing with the techniques of digital fabrication sees Italy in second place after the United States.

Then there is “The House of Drones”, the home of drones that will take off in an aviary of 300 square meters wide and 22 meters tall, with a series of performances aimed to demonstrate their utility in missions of peace and relief.

Not only that, there will be underwater drones and a remote-controlled robot equipped with propellers to explore the seabed.

There is also space to the music with the label Sugarmusic and twenty artists involved to experiment with musical instruments self-produced new harmonies from the merger of bit beat: There surprise discovering how the 3D printing and tie will be exploited to recreate an orchestra, or as sound waves will turn into drops of water, and even as a cup of yogurt will become a tool.

Finally the inevitable space dedicated to children, with the islands and the first educational tastings of coding for 2,500 children coming from all over Italy.

But as mentioned the invention is not missing. As failure is not such as to Anna Casagrande and Nicoletta Effah that as reported by the Sole 24 Ore will present the “drone by art” a pocket device, not much bigger than a hand, with micro.

The drone is flown, it has a range of almost ten minutes and recharges very quickly, and can record images in enclosed spaces. For example, which hosts art exhibitions: so the pictures can travel via social media, smartphones and tablets, allowing the art to reach more young people.

The absolute star of the event the University of Rome La Sapienza in particular, the Physics Department that will become an open lab and you can participate in interesting and curious experiments with gyroscopes, magnets and electricity.

The Rector of Wisdom Eugenio Gaudio He said: “For our university is an investment, when it was proposed to hold here the Maker Faire, we had no doubts: the Academic Senate and the board of directors unanimously voted in favor. This event, which is set here, is the past and the future that come in contact. In a historic moment like the one we are going through, if we focus on the challenge of young people we lose, we lose the challenge of the future “.
