Prosthetics can’t replicate the look and feel of lost limbs but they can carry a lot of personality. At TEDxCambridge, Scott Summit shows 3D-printed, individually designed prosthetic legs that are unabashedly artificial and completely personal -- from macho to fabulous.
(Filmed at TEDxCambridge.)

I'm an industrial designer,
0
2335
1332
我是工業設計師，
00:14
which means I create all these cool things
1
3691
2037
就是說，我創造各種酷玩意兒，
00:16
from ideas that we surround ourselves
with, or in this case,
with, or in this case,
2
5752
3159
靈感來自我們周遭的點子，
或是，在這個例子中，
或是，在這個例子中，
00:19
geeky people surround themselves
with, for the most part.
with, for the most part.

主要是怪胎周遭的點子。
00:22
I have absolutely no background
in biology, chemistry or engineering,
in biology, chemistry or engineering,

我完全沒有生物、
化學、工程的背景，
化學、工程的背景，
00:27
so bear with me, because I'll be talking
about biomedical engineering today.
about biomedical engineering today.

請容忍我一下，因為我今天
要談的是生物醫學工程。
要談的是生物醫學工程。
00:31
(Laughter)

（笑聲）
00:32
And please do stay here in the meantime.

過程中請留在這裡。
00:36
Industrial design is about
making lots of things identical.
making lots of things identical.
8
25507
3971
工業設計的重點是
要讓很多東西一模一樣。
要讓很多東西一模一樣。
00:40
The downside about that is,
there's something impersonal
there's something impersonal
9
29502
2698
缺點是，很多一模一樣的東西，
00:43
about lots of identical things,
10
32224
1540
感覺很沒人情味，
00:44
because when you're trying
to design one thing for one person
to design one thing for one person
11
33788
2953
因為當你試圖為某個人設計某樣東西
00:47
to solve one issue,
12
36765
1369
來解決某個問題，
00:49
you can't really do that
13
38158
1281
你不能靠著
00:50
when you're making things
aimed more to a demographic model
aimed more to a demographic model
14
39463
3062
人口統計模型來做，
或是行銷需求文件來做，
00:53
or to a marketing requirements document,
15
42549
2454
但我們只能遵守這個原則來做。
00:56
which is what we live by.
16
45027
1404
00:57
So I got disheartened
by the whole process in general,
by the whole process in general,
17
46455
3229
所以，通常我對
這整個流程感到沮喪，
這整個流程感到沮喪，
01:00
and went to rethink it
and redesign designing altogether,
and redesign designing altogether,
18
49708
3233
所以我去重新思考它，
同時重新設計了「設計」，
同時重新設計了「設計」，
01:03
went way back to my early, early
design inspirations,
design inspirations,
19
52965
2858
我回到我很早的設計靈感，
01:06
and back to about eight years old,
and that got me to this guy.
and that got me to this guy.
20
55847
4266
回到大約八歲時，
我知道了這個傢伙。
我知道了這個傢伙。
麻省理工學院的人都認識他，
01:11
Anyone here from MIT knows him
21
60870
2335
至少在某處有他的刺青或海報。
01:14
or has a tattoo or poster
of him somewhere.
of him somewhere.
22
63229
2032
01:16
(Laughter)
23
65285
1013
（笑聲）
01:17
Anyone else in the room, just for a hint,
24
66322
2225
給這裡不認識他的人一個暗示，
01:19
he is the engineer of engineers
or the designer of designers.
or the designer of designers.
25
68571
3471
他是工程師中的工程師，
或設計師中的設計師。
或設計師中的設計師。
01:23
He is the guy who made bionics
a household word
a household word
26
72066
3452
是他讓仿生學成為人人熟知的詞，
01:26
in the form of the polyester-clad
Six Million Dollar Man
Six Million Dollar Man
27
75542
3139
原因就是電視影集
《六百萬的人》裡這位聚酯包覆人，
《六百萬的人》裡這位聚酯包覆人，
01:29
that I grew up with.
28
78705
1746
我就是看著這個節目長大的。
01:32
The thing that came from
this pop culture show,
this pop culture show,
29
81165
2551
這個流行文化節目的重點，
01:34
the real takeaway, was two main things:
30
83740
2297
真正的意義，主要是兩樣東西：
01:37
if you're designing for the person,
for a real person,
for a real person,
31
86061
3174
如果你在為一個真人做設計，
01:40
you don't settle for the minimum
functional requirements;
functional requirements;
32
89259
3211
你不能妥協只做到最低功能需求；
01:43
you see how far beyond that you can go,
33
92494
1896
你要看你還能超越多少，
01:45
where the rewards really are
way out in the fringe
way out in the fringe
34
94414
2439
真正的獎賞遠在邊緣之外，
01:47
of how far past that document you can go.
35
96877
2384
就看你能夠超越需求文件多遠。
01:50
And if you can nail that,
36
99285
1608
如果你能搞定，
01:51
you stand to improve
the quality of life for somebody
the quality of life for somebody
37
100917
2508
你就能改變某人的生活品質，
01:54
for every moment
for the rest of their life.
for the rest of their life.
38
103449
2197
改變他餘生的每一刻。
01:56
I kind of distilled that down
into a design philosophy,
into a design philosophy,
39
105670
3729
我把它去蕪存菁簡化
成了一個設計哲學，
成了一個設計哲學，
02:00
and infuse that
into the studio that I have now;
into the studio that I have now;
40
109423
3315
並把它注入到我現在的工作室當中；
02:03
I'm trying to get everyone
to think along these lines.
to think along these lines.
41
112762
3004
我試著要讓每個人
都根據這些方式來做。
都根據這些方式來做。
02:06
It's not a profound philosophy,
but it works for us.
but it works for us.
42
115790
4081
它不是很深奧的哲學，
但對我們來說有用。
但對我們來說有用。
02:12
We work with prosthetic limbs,
43
121599
1778
我們做的是人工義肢，
02:14
and the first thing you see
about prosthetic limbs
about prosthetic limbs
44
123401
2740
看到人工義肢時，你最先會
02:17
is that they are engineering brilliance.
45
126165
3192
注意到它們的工程光彩。
02:20
They can do amazing things;
46
129381
1415
它們能做很了不起的事；
02:21
they can return all kinds
of functionality and performance
of functionality and performance
47
130820
3781
它們能將各種功能和技能
02:25
back to somebody's life.
48
134625
1253
重新帶回一個人的人生當中。
02:26
But from the vantage
of an industrial designer,
of an industrial designer,
49
135902
2391
但從工業設計師的角度來看，
02:29
they're not quite there.
50
138317
1220
還沒有完全做到。
02:30
What we don't see is the sculpture
or the beauty or the individual qualities
or the beauty or the individual qualities
51
139561
4308
我們還沒有看到
它們的雕塑性、美麗、
它們的雕塑性、美麗、
個別特質、獨特性、或優雅。
02:34
or the uniqueness or the elegance to them.
52
143893
2560
02:37
They are brilliant, mechanical,
utilitarian devices.
utilitarian devices.
53
146477
4844
它們是很出色的實用機械裝置。
02:42
And that's great, except
for a lot of people, that doesn't work.
for a lot of people, that doesn't work.
54
151345
3382
那很棒，不過對很多人而言，
那樣沒有用。
02:45
People come to our studio all the time,
55
154751
1995
常常有人來我們的工作室，
02:47
and they have bubble wrap and duct tape,
56
156770
2932
他們用氣泡紙和強力膠帶，
02:50
trying to approximate their original form.
57
159726
2374
試圖去模擬他們原本的樣子。
02:53
Or they'll have a gym sock
stuffed with other gym socks
stuffed with other gym socks
58
162124
2614
或是他們會把運動襪塞到運動襪裡，
02:55
to try to recreate
the shape that once was;
the shape that once was;
59
164762
2507
試著創造出過去曾經有過的外形；
02:58
and that, to us, is not thriving.
60
167293
2837
對我們來說，那不太成功。
03:01
The body, to us,
is not a mechanical entity,
is not a mechanical entity,
61
170154
3337
對我們來說，身體並不是只能用
機械解決方案來處理的機械實體。
03:04
where mechanical-only solutions
can address them.
can address them.
62
173515
2544
03:07
It's our personal sculpture,
our kinematic sculpture.
our kinematic sculpture.
63
176083
3203
它是我們的個人雕塑，
我們的運動學雕塑。
我們的運動學雕塑。
它是我們的畫布；
03:10
It is our canvas;
64
179310
1166
03:11
it represents not just our physicality,
65
180500
1956
它代表的不只是我們的體形特徵，
03:13
but also a lot of our personality as well.
66
182480
2110
也代表我們的個性。
03:15
So when you're designing for the body,
67
184614
1931
所以當你在為身體做設計時，
03:17
maybe the thing isn't to design
for mass production,
for mass production,
68
186569
2479
也許重點並不是要為了量產而設計，
03:20
but to design with the body in mind,
69
189072
2450
而是要心裡想著身體來做設計，
03:22
to really think about curves
instead of hard geometry,
instead of hard geometry,
70
191546
2579
真正去思考曲線，
而不是冷酷的幾何，
而不是冷酷的幾何，
03:25
or uniqueness instead of identical.
71
194149
2909
思考獨特性，而不是一模一樣。
03:28
The problem is, we're constrained
by mass production,
by mass production,
72
197082
2785
問題是，我們受到了量產的限制，
量產是要製作百萬個相同的東西，
03:30
which makes a million identical things
73
199891
1928
03:32
but can't make one unique,
individualized thing.
individualized thing.
74
201843
2405
無法做出一個獨特、個人化的東西。
03:35
So we scrapped that
in the new design process,
in the new design process,
75
204272
2629
所以在新的設計流程中，
我們放棄了這些，
我們放棄了這些，
03:37
and we start with the person.
76
206925
1694
我們從人開始。
03:39
This is a three-dimensional scanner,
77
208643
2009
這是三維的掃瞄器，
03:41
and that's what happens
when you scan somebody:
when you scan somebody:
78
210676
2220
掃瞄一個人就可以得到這種結果：
03:43
you get three-dimensional data
into your computer.
into your computer.
79
212920
2515
電腦上會出現三維的資料。
你可以把好的、還健在的肢體
03:46
You can take the sound-side limb there,
the surviving limb, mirror it over,
the surviving limb, mirror it over,
80
215459
4582
做鏡向反射，從現在開始，
03:51
and from now on,
81
220065
1167
03:52
anything in the process
will recreate symmetry --
will recreate symmetry --
82
221256
2382
在流程中的任何東西
都會重建出對稱──
都會重建出對稱──
03:54
something as personal
and as hard to achieve
and as hard to achieve
83
223662
2073
這東西不但很個人化、
也很不容易做到像身體一樣對稱。
03:56
as symmetry in the body.
84
225759
1770
03:58
And you create a product
that, no matter what,
that, no matter what,
85
227553
2483
你創造出來的產品，不論如何，
04:01
it's going to be as unique
as their fingerprint.
as their fingerprint.
86
230060
2295
都會和指紋一樣是獨一無二的。
04:03
In fact, our process is incapable
of creating two identical things.
of creating two identical things.
87
232379
3522
事實上，我們的流程沒有辦法
做出兩件一樣的東西。
做出兩件一樣的東西。
04:06
So we run it through
computer modeling, 3D CAD.
computer modeling, 3D CAD.
88
235925
3541
所以我們採用電腦建模，3D CAD。
04:10
Here, we actually infuse a lot
of the individual's taste and personality
of the individual's taste and personality
89
239490
4949
在這裡，我們能在任何
我們能注入的地方，
我們能注入的地方，
注入很多的個人品味和個性，
04:15
into it, everywhere we can,
90
244463
1628
然後我們把結果用三維列印印出來。
04:17
and we three-dimensionally
print the results.
print the results.
91
246115
2305
04:19
We call the resulting parts "fairings,"
92
248444
1904
我們把產出的部件稱為「整流」，
04:21
because they're named
after the panels on a motorcycle
after the panels on a motorcycle
93
250372
2987
這個詞是來自摩托車的整流罩，
04:24
that turn it from a mechanical thing
into a sculptural thing.
into a sculptural thing.
94
253383
3310
它將機械式的東西轉變為雕塑。
04:27
We tried this on Chad.
95
256717
3490
我們拿查德來嘗試。
04:31
Chad is a competitive soccer player,
96
260231
2326
查德是比賽的足球員，
04:33
lost his leg eight years ago to cancer.
97
262581
1904
八年前因為癌症失去一條腿。
04:35
You can imagine,
it's really tricky to play soccer
it's really tricky to play soccer
98
264509
2452
可以想像，原本是腿的地方
被鈦金屬管取代之後，
要踢足球是很困難的。
要踢足球是很困難的。
04:37
when you have titanium pipe
where there used to be a leg.
where there used to be a leg.
99
266985
2946
04:40
The resulting parts recreated his shape
100
269955
4031
我們做出的部件重建了他的外型，
04:45
and deliberately had an aesthetic
that look like sporting gear.
that look like sporting gear.
101
274010
3071
還刻意加上了美學
讓它看來像運動的裝備。
讓它看來像運動的裝備。
04:48
We wanted it to make it look like
he just pulled it out of the gym bag,
he just pulled it out of the gym bag,
102
277105
3412
我們想要讓它看起來像是
他剛把它從運動袋中拿出來，
他剛把它從運動袋中拿出來，
04:51
so it's fairly utilitarian in that regard.
103
280541
2367
所以在這方面它是很實用的。
04:53
Two things happened.
104
282932
1180
有兩件事發生了。
04:55
One, we expected: his sense
of his body came back to him.
of his body came back to him.
105
284136
4302
第一件是意料之中：
他對身體的感覺回來了。
他對身體的感覺回來了。
04:59
He was suddenly able to control
the ball, to feel the ball,
the ball, to feel the ball,
106
288462
2850
他突然能夠控制球、感受到球，
05:02
because his body remembered
that original shape that he had had
that original shape that he had had
107
291336
3027
因為他的身體一直
記得他原本的身形，
記得他原本的身形，
05:05
up until eight years ago.
108
294387
1226
直到八年前。
05:06
The other thing, though,
is that the other members of the team
is that the other members of the team
109
295637
3088
第二件事是，球隊的其他隊員
05:09
stopped thinking of him
as the amputee on the team.
as the amputee on the team.
110
298749
2757
不再認為他是隊中的被截肢者了。
05:12
Not that they didn't know, but it stopped
becoming a focal point for him.
becoming a focal point for him.
111
301530
3536
並非他們不知道他被截肢，
但那不再是他的焦點了。
但那不再是他的焦點了。
05:16
And there is a certain
very quiet value in that,
very quiet value in that,
112
305090
3205
在這當中，有著一種
心照不宣的默契在，
心照不宣的默契在，
05:19
we like to believe.
113
308319
1490
我們願意如此相信。
05:21
James lost his leg in a motorcycle crash.
114
310537
2618
詹姆士在摩托車事故中失去他的腿。
05:24
And the motorcycle is still a big part
of James's personality and style.
of James's personality and style.
115
313179
3707
而摩托車仍然是詹姆士的
個性和風格中很大的一部份。
個性和風格中很大的一部份。
05:27
Check out the tattoo on his forearm.
116
316910
2837
看看他前臂的刺青。
05:30
We three-dimensionally printed that
into what would be his calf.
into what would be his calf.
117
319771
3870
我們把那刺青用三維列印
印在小腿的部位。
印在小腿的部位。
05:34
He has his tattoo, he has his morphology
118
323665
2615
他有他的刺青，他有他的形態學，
05:37
and he has the materials
of his motorcycle.
of his motorcycle.
119
326304
2314
他有他的摩托車的材料。
05:39
And the result is interesting in that
you can't really tell at first glance
you can't really tell at first glance
120
328642
4695
而結果是很有趣的，
你第一眼其實看不出來
你第一眼其實看不出來
05:44
where the motorcycle stops
and where James starts.
and where James starts.
121
333361
2427
摩托車和詹姆士的區分界線在哪裡。
05:46
It's kind of a chimera hybrid
between the two,
between the two,
122
335812
3463
它有點像是兩者合而為一的感覺，
05:50
and James likes that.
123
339299
1966
詹姆士很喜歡。
05:52
(Laughter)
124
341289
1394
（笑聲）
05:55
So, we don't ever try to make something
look like it could be human.
look like it could be human.
125
344082
4478
我們並不是在試著做出
看起來像真人的東西。
看起來像真人的東西。
05:59
Our whole goal is to be
unapologetically man-made,
unapologetically man-made,
126
348584
2890
我們的目標是理直氣壯的
做出人造產品，
做出人造產品，
06:02
to take what's already there, morphology,
127
351498
2693
用現有的東西以及形態學，
06:05
and just make it really
cool and beautiful,
cool and beautiful,
128
354215
2088
把東西做得很酷很美，
做成讓你等不及秀給世界看的東西，
06:07
something that somebody
can't wait to show the world,
can't wait to show the world,
129
356327
2509
因為這能改變他們的外觀。
06:09
because that changes their look.
130
358860
1536
你不會看著他說：
「他是裝著義肢的被截肢者。」
「他是裝著義肢的被截肢者。」
06:11
You don't look at him and say,
"He's an amputee with a prosthetic."
"He's an amputee with a prosthetic."
131
360420
3265
你會說：「他身上
有個非常酷的東西。」
有個非常酷的東西。」
06:14
You say, "He's a guy
with something really cool going on.
with something really cool going on.
132
363709
2755
06:17
Deborah wanted her curves back,
133
366488
1696
戴博菈想要她以前的曲線，
06:19
but she also just wanted
what came out of it to be really sexy,
what came out of it to be really sexy,
134
368208
4046
但她也想要曲線帶來性感的感覺，
06:23
which is great for us to hear.
135
372278
2370
我們很高興聽到這點。
06:25
We created this lace pattern
that lends itself well to 3D printing.
that lends itself well to 3D printing.
136
374672
4137
我們創造了這個蕾絲模式，
很適合做三維列印。
很適合做三維列印。
06:29
We created the first leg, I think,
137
378833
1935
我們做出了第一隻腿，我認為
06:31
where the lace defines
the contour of the leg,
the contour of the leg,
138
380792
3693
蕾絲的部份明確顯現出了腿的輪廓，
06:35
instead of the leg
giving form to the lace.
giving form to the lace.
139
384509
2755
而不是腿給了蕾絲一個外形。
06:38
We switched things over.
140
387288
1765
我們將兩者調換了過來。
06:40
What I like about this shot
is you can see daylight through it.
is you can see daylight through it.
141
389077
3031
我喜歡這張照片，是因為
可以看到日光穿透過腳。
可以看到日光穿透過腳。
我們沒有要隱藏什麼；
06:43
So we're not trying to hide anything;
142
392132
1811
承重的碳元件完全看得見。
06:44
the load-bearing carbon component
is totally visible.
is totally visible.
143
393967
2519
我們只是給予它外形、形狀、輪廓，
06:47
We're just giving it form
and shape and contours
and shape and contours
144
396510
3694
06:51
that were hers to begin with.
145
400228
1832
這些都是本來就屬於她的。
06:54
We made her another leg
that matched her purse,
that matched her purse,
146
403152
2757
我們為她做了另一條腿，
來搭配她的包包，
來搭配她的包包，
06:56
just because we could.
147
405933
1276
只因為我們做得到。
06:58
(Laughter)
148
407233
1935
（笑聲）
07:02
(Applause)
149
411108
2871
（掌聲）
07:07
We made another one
where we laser-tattooed the leather,
where we laser-tattooed the leather,
150
416022
3338
我們又做了另一件，
在皮革上做雷射刺青，
在皮革上做雷射刺青，
07:10
because how cool would it be
151
419384
1397
因為只要一分鐘
07:11
to be able to change your tattoos out
from one minute to the next?
from one minute to the next?
152
420805
3157
就可以改變你的刺青是多酷的事啊？
07:14
Love that.
153
423986
1338
我很愛。
07:16
We try to capture as much
of somebody's personality as we can.
of somebody's personality as we can.
154
425348
2965
我們盡可能去捕捉一個人的個性。
07:19
This is George.
His will be finished next week.
His will be finished next week.
155
428337
3316
這是喬治。他的腿在下週會完成。
07:23
This is the raw computer data
that we deal with.
that we deal with.
156
432137
3238
這是我們在處理的電腦原始資料。
07:26
He's kind of a classic,
timeless-type personality,
timeless-type personality,
157
435399
3579
他有種經典、不受時間影響的個性，
07:29
so we did herringbone tweed,
but in polished nickel.
but in polished nickel.
158
439002
2906
所以我們做了人字形花呢，
但用的是抛光的鎳。
但用的是抛光的鎳。
07:32
(Laughter)
159
441932
1288
（笑聲）
07:34
And Uve was all too proud
to show his tattoos,
to show his tattoos,
160
443244
2420
而烏維對他的刺青非常得意，
07:36
so we are laser-tattooing those
into the leather.
into the leather.
161
445688
3477
所以我們用雷射在皮革上做刺青。
07:40
Part of it is, yes, we're showing off,
because we can do this,
because we can do this,
162
449189
2989
的確我們一部份是
在炫耀我們能做到這些。
在炫耀我們能做到這些。
07:43
but the other part is this connects him
to what will be a part of him.
to what will be a part of him.
163
452202
3421
但也是讓他和未來身體的
部份能有所連結。
部份能有所連結。
07:46
That is something really valuable;
we believe in that.
we believe in that.
164
455647
2632
我們相信其中有相當的價值。
07:49
Tattoos are especially exciting for us.
165
458303
1957
對刺青的部份我們特別興奮。
07:51
What happens if you take the tattoo,
166
460284
1797
想想這樣的情境，
07:53
which is a combination
of somebody's personal taste and choice,
of somebody's personal taste and choice,
167
462105
3187
刺青結合了一個人的
個人口味和選擇、
個人口味和選擇、
07:56
and their morphology,
168
465316
1586
以及他們的形態學，
07:57
but now, let's say, you remove the person.
169
466926
2403
但如果你把人的部份給拿掉。
08:00
You get a free-floating tattoo
defining their body.
defining their body.
170
469353
3988
你就得到了獨立的刺青，
用來定義他們的身體。
用來定義他們的身體。
08:04
So everything we do is about recreating
and expressing something
and expressing something
171
473365
4343
我們所做的一切，
就是在重新創造和表現出
就是在重新創造和表現出
對當事人有意義的東西，
08:08
that means something to that person,
172
477732
1737
08:10
and expressing that through
what would be their body,
what would be their body,
173
479493
2546
透過將會成為
他們身體的東西來表現，
他們身體的東西來表現，
08:13
whether it's speed or attitude or bling,
174
482063
3881
不論是速度、態度、或閃亮華麗，
08:16
whatever it is that captures
and suggests them in the best way we can.
and suggests them in the best way we can.
175
485968
3891
我們會盡全力來捕捉
他們的特質並提供建議。
他們的特質並提供建議。
08:22
Back to the 3D-printing thing
and this whole process:
and this whole process:
176
491251
2520
回到三維列印以及整個流程：
08:24
we have a process that lends itself
to making one thing per person;
to making one thing per person;
177
493795
3327
這個流程很適合
為一個人做一樣東西；
為一個人做一樣東西；
08:28
it's very individual, and it actually
really lends itself well to complexity.
really lends itself well to complexity.
178
497146
3812
它非常個人化，
且其實很適合複雜性。
且其實很適合複雜性。
那為什麼不把整隻腿
列印出來就好？
列印出來就好？
08:31
So why not just print the entire leg?
179
500982
1949
08:33
That's the concept that preceded
the work we're doing now.
the work we're doing now.
180
502955
3892
那其實是在我們現在
做這些之前的概念。
做這些之前的概念。
08:37
This is a three-dimensionally printed leg.
It's symmetric to the other leg.
It's symmetric to the other leg.
181
506871
4176
這是一隻三維列印出來的腳，
和另一隻腳對稱。
和另一隻腳對稱。
08:42
It is made in America,
182
511071
2365
它是美國製，
08:44
it is a trivially low-carbon footprint
to create, curbside recyclable,
to create, curbside recyclable,
183
513460
5651
製作的碳足跡非常低，
可在路邊回收，
可在路邊回收，
08:50
costs about 4,000 dollars to create,
184
519135
2761
製作費用大約 $4,000，
08:52
and it is dishwasher-safe.
185
521920
2257
可用洗碗機洗。
08:55
(Laughter)
186
524201
1884
（笑聲）
08:57
There's a value to that, too.
187
526109
1482
那也是有價值的。
08:58
People don't think
about that all the time,
about that all the time,
188
527615
2055
人們通常不會想到這點，
但，是的，把它丟到
洗碗機洗，完全沒問題。
洗碗機洗，完全沒問題。
09:00
but yes, throw it in the dishwasher,
it works just great.
it works just great.
189
529694
2810
這背後的原始想法是，
我可以到世界任何地方，
我可以到世界任何地方，
09:03
This was based on the original idea
that I could go anywhere in the world
that I could go anywhere in the world
190
532528
3512
09:07
with nothing more than a camera
and a laptop computer,
and a laptop computer,
191
536064
2613
只要帶一台相機和一台筆記型電腦，
09:09
use the camera as a 3D scanner and create
for somebody, in a matter of hours,
for somebody, in a matter of hours,
192
538701
3779
用相機來當三維掃瞄器，
就能在幾小時內為別人創作
就能在幾小時內為別人創作
09:13
a very high-quality, three-dimensionally
printed leg for a very low cost.
printed leg for a very low cost.
193
542504
3658
非常高品質的三維列印腿，
且成本非常低。
且成本非常低。
09:17
The proof of concept works great,
we're finding it; we'll get there.
we're finding it; we'll get there.
194
546186
3678
概念驗證非常成功，
我們正在朝那裡邁進。
我們正在朝那裡邁進。
09:21
Or, we upped the quality of the materials
and created this for John.
and created this for John.
195
550699
3833
或是，我們為約翰提升了
材料品質，做出了這個。
材料品質，做出了這個。
09:25
The fun thing with John's leg
is that when his fiancee looked at this,
is that when his fiancee looked at this,
196
554556
4494
約翰的腳有一件趣事，
當他的未婚妻看著這隻腳時，
當他的未婚妻看著這隻腳時，
09:30
she joked and said, "I like that leg
better than that leg."
better than that leg."
197
559074
3899
她會開玩笑說：
「我喜歡這隻腳勝過那隻腳。」
「我喜歡這隻腳勝過那隻腳。」
09:33
(Laughter)
198
562997
1673
（笑聲）
09:35
And it's a joke -- she knows full well
what he goes through --
what he goes through --
199
564694
3321
那是個玩笑──
她完全清楚他經歷過什麼──
她完全清楚他經歷過什麼──
09:39
but at the same time,
there's something very valuable.
there's something very valuable.
200
568039
2608
但同時，那當中也有著相當的價值。
他轉向我們，說：
「從來沒有人那樣說過。」
「從來沒有人那樣說過。」
09:41
He turned to us and said,
"Nobody says that."
"Nobody says that."
201
570671
2207
他一生中從來沒有聽過。
09:43
He's never heard that in his life.
202
572902
1668
那讓他有很深的連結。
09:45
That connected with him very deeply.
203
574594
2683
09:48
So we like to think
that this is a new type of design,
that this is a new type of design,
204
577301
3294
我們認為，這是一種新式的設計，
09:51
where you're turning
the original process on its head,
the original process on its head,
205
580619
4186
把原本的流程完全顛覆了，
09:55
where there is a dialogue that forms
between the designer and the end user,
between the designer and the end user,
206
584829
3544
在設計師和終端使用者
之間有對話形成，
之間有對話形成，
09:59
where the designer relinquishes
some of the control --
some of the control --
207
588397
2591
設計師交出一些控制權──
10:02
designers hate doing that --
208
591012
1340
設計師很討厭這樣做──
10:03
and instead, is the curator of a process.
209
592376
3373
取而代之，扮演流程監管人。
10:06
And the end user relinquishes their body
into the process, and their taste.
into the process, and their taste.
210
595773
4273
在流程中，終端使用者則要
交出他們的身體及品味。
交出他們的身體及品味。
10:11
I'd like to think that speaks
to a greater change that's happening
to a greater change that's happening
211
600070
3284
我認為，那也表示在整個設計世界
10:14
in the design world altogether;
212
603378
1560
有更大的改變在發生；
10:15
in this case, it's one where
products will be evaluated
products will be evaluated
213
604962
3627
在這個例子中的改變是，
產品被評估的方式，
產品被評估的方式，
10:19
on how well they address the individual.
214
608613
2760
是根據它多能滿足個人需求來評估。
10:23
The individual will actually be
part of the DNA of the end product itself.
part of the DNA of the end product itself.
215
612264
5022
而個人其實也會是
成品本身的 DNA 的一部份。
成品本身的 DNA 的一部份。
10:28
We will be evaluating products
on how well they address a unique person,
on how well they address a unique person,
216
617310
4372
我們會根據產品多能滿足
一個獨特的人，來評價這個產品，
一個獨特的人，來評價這個產品，
10:32
instead of a demographic model.
217
621706
1873
而不是用人口統計模型來看。
其實在我們最初做出的一隻腳上，
就能看到預期的效果出現；
就能看到預期的效果出現；
10:35
This all really hit home for us
in one of the first legs we did;
in one of the first legs we did;
218
624316
3801
10:39
when Chad here put on the leg,
219
628141
2717
就是當查德裝上他的腳的時候，
10:41
reached down and felt it
220
630882
1660
他伸手去觸碰，去感覺它，
10:43
and thought about it for a while.
221
632566
1591
深思了一下。
10:45
Then he turned to us and said,
222
634181
1581
接著他轉向我們，說：
10:46
"That's the first time I've felt
that shape in eight years."
that shape in eight years."
223
635786
3453
「這是八年來我第一次
感受到那形狀。」
感受到那形狀。」
10:50
We thought about that.
224
639783
1416
我們思考了那一點。
10:52
And for all the technology
225
641223
1262
我們為它投入了
10:53
and all the nights
and energy we put into it,
and energy we put into it,
226
642509
2670
那麼多技術、時間、精力，
10:56
that's all we really wanted to hear.
227
645203
1962
我們想聽到的就是那句話。
10:58
Thanks.
228
647769
1192
謝謝。
10:59
