MakerBot

This machine makes 3-D objects, it is a new technology that is becoming very popular. there is no need to have one of these machines at CM. there are no program or course that we could take at this school that would be benefited by one of these devices. if we had an engineering program it would be very useful, but we dont. it has very cutting edge technology however we need to make more improvements to our technology department before we purchase this device.

Smart Things

The smart things application is a killer app available on the iTunes and android market place. this app requires the purchase of a device called the hub which is a one time fee of $99. This device will allow you to download the free app and it will allow you to lock doors, turn lights on and off, control your tv, and thermostats. This pretty much allows you to protect your house from anywhere with cellular connection.
