Once all the kinks in this computerized cooking are worked out, your Fabber may become an essential kitchen appliance. And expectations for the device don't stop there.
一旦所有突发奇想都实现，电脑控制的烹饪系统被计算出来，那么Fabber将变成你厨房里不可或缺的家电。对这些设备的预期还远远没有结束。
"This is a very universal type of technology that's applicable to a wide variety of things, and it is conceivable that you could print even large things such as cars or houses."
“这是一类很普遍的技术，适用于各式各样的事物。可想而知，你能“打印”巨大的物体，例如汽车或者房子。”
While printing your own house seems like a stretch, your Fabber could download and print the latest must-haves for your home and eliminate the need for replacement parts. You will be your own factory and builder. And with the Fabber, you'll never again have to make that last-minute run to the home-improvement store.
“打印”房子，这听起来似乎有点不真实，但Fabber会帮你“下载”并“打印”出房屋的必需品，并且一次到位不需要再更换材料重修。就像是你自己成立的工厂，而自己就是工厂工人。有了Fabber，你就再也不用花费精力奔向装修市场。
You could imagine in the future where you shop online for items, and once you find what you want, you'll essentially purchase the blueprint and print the device you've purchased on your own desk at home.
可以想象在盛行网购的未来世界里，当你发现你想要的东西时，只要购买产品的蓝图，就能在自家桌面上打印出那个设备。
Futuristic homes, humanoid robots, superhuman powers all represent science fiction fantasies come to life.
未来的房屋，类人机器人，超能量都代表着科幻小说变成现实。
And those fantasies are not limited to earth. Your future home may actually have a lot fewer objects than today, that's because the objects you have will be infinitely more flexible. A chair will morph into a shears, or anything else you want, through a new technology known as claytronics.
这些幻想并不仅仅局限于地球。在你未来的家里，家具可能比现在少得多，那是因为家具会变得无限灵活。通过一项新的科技（即claytronics），一把椅子可能演变成一把大剪刀，或者其它你想要的事物。
Claytronics is essentially gonna create a new media type. Way back from the telephone, we've had audio which allowed us to send voice; and then we had video which allowed us to send voice and pictures. So, with claytronics, the idea is we can send not just sound and picture, but actually the 3-D shape itself.
Claytronics本质上是要创建一种新型的媒体。跟电话的原理一样，有了音频我们可以传递声音；然后出现了视频，让我们可以传递声音和图片。因此claytronics的理念是不仅可以传递声音和图片，还能传递3D空间。
Seth Goldstein, a professor at Carnegie Mellon, is one of the developers of claytronics.
卡内基梅隆大学的教授塞斯•高德斯坦是claytronics的创始人之一。
