Well, there's also another interesting thing.
还有另外一件有趣的事情。
I said the electronics are open-source,
就像我说的，所有的电子组件都是开源的，
because at the heart of this printer there is something I'm really attached to:
这台机器的关键组件是我个人最为关心的，
these Arduino boards, the motherboard that sort of powers this printer,
Arduino主板，这台打印机的核心部分，
is a project I've been working on for the past seven years.
这是我的一个项目，已经开展七年了。
It's an open-source project. I worked with these friends of mine that I have here.
这是一个开源项目。我和这些朋友一起合作。
So the five of us, two Americans, two Italians and a Spaniard, we...
一共五个人，两个美国人，两个意大利人，一个西班牙人...
You know, it's a worldwide project.
这确实是一个全球项目。
So we came together in this design institute called the Interaction Design Institute Ivrea,
我们都在伊夫雷亚互动设计研究所工作，
which was teaching interaction design, this idea that you can take design from the simple shape of an object
这个研究所研究的是如何设计出形状简单
and you can move it forward to design the way you interact with things.
但能够与人互动的设备。

Well, when you design an object that's supposed to interact with a human being,
这种设备能够与人互动，
if you make a foam model of a mobile phone, it doesn't make any sense.
如果仅仅制作一个手机的泡沫模型，这没什么意义。
You have to have something that actually interacts with people.
我们制作出来的东西要与人互动才有意义。
So, we worked on Arduino and a lot of other projects there to create platforms that would be simple for our students to use,
因此，我们开发了Arduino以及其他一些项目，这就给我们的学生建立了简易的平台，方便他们使用，
so that our students could just build things that worked,
让他们有机会制作一些实用的东西，
but they don't have five years to become an electronics engineer. We have one month.
不过他们没有五年的时间成为电子工程师，我们只有一个月时间。
So how do I make something that even a kid can use?
那么，如何制作一个孩子都能用的东西呢？
And actually, with Arduino, we have kids like Sylvia that you see here, that actually make projects with Arduino.
实际上，在Arduino的帮助下，像你看到的这个孩子，Sylvia，就能做出自己的东西。
I have 11-year-old kids stop me and show me stuff they built for Arduino
才11岁的孩子，就能用Arduino做东西，
that's really scary to see the capabilities that kids have when you give them the tools.
我感觉，一旦给了这些孩子工具，他们表现出来的能力真的让人有些害怕。

演讲介绍

Massimo Banzi和其他人一起发明了Arduino，这是一个体积很小且使用方便的开源微控制器。这让世界各地成千上万的人能够制作各种各样有个性的东西——从玩具到卫星装置。因为，正如他所说：“你不需要任何人的允许就可以去做很棒的东西。”
