107th NY Hardware Meetup @ Fractal // Kickstarter's Newest Record Breaker!!
The Hardware Meetup community is excited to announce the 107th NY Hardware Meetup at Fractal. The Fractal Tech Hub is a meeting place in the heart of Williamsburg for startup founders and engineers to do their most ambitious work. The space offers 4000+ square feet of both shared office space and private offices, two kitchens, a communal lounge, and a 5000+ square foot private roof deck.
Hardware Meetups happen across 30+ cities around the world, bringing together hardware professionals to network, learn, and collaborate. You might not realize it, but NYC is a hotbed for innovation and in our next session you'll meet a well-known company working at the tech industry's forefront.
This week we'll be at Fractal for a very special workshop with the team from eufyMake, a maker-focused brand by consumer electronics powerhouse, Anker. With eufyMake, everyday creators are provided with world-class tools that turn bold ideas into reality. Designed for ultimate ease and efficiency, their printers let you focus on what truly matters: unleashing your imagination.
During the workshop, attendees will get a hands-on look at the eufyMake E1, the world’s first personal 3D-texture UV printer. It’s smaller, smarter, more affordable, and more user-friendly than traditional alternatives on the market. We'll learn about the printer's auto-leveling, self-cleaning, and AI-powered workflow geared at addressing key issues endemic to this product category.
Within just 10 days of its launch, the eufyMake E1 has surpassed $20 million on Kickstarter, setting an unprecedented record as the fastest-funded tech product in the Kickstarter’s history. It now ranks #1 in the tech category and #2 all-time across all categories.
We'll be hearing from Mike Ling, Director of Channel Sales at Anker. He'll take us through the development experience and core technologies behind the E1 in eufyMake's endeavor to bring industrial-grade innovation to everyday creators. For those keen to see what's under the hood, we'll also hear from a eufyMake engineer about the tech chops required to develop a desktop unit capable of printing millions of vibrant colors on over 300 material types.
