Joseph DeSimone: What if 3D printing was 100x faster?

"Joseph DeSimone: What if 3D printing was 100x faster?" was filmed in Mach 2015 at TED2015.

Summary
"What we think of as 3D printing, says Joseph DeSimone, is really just 2D printing over and over ... slowly. Onstage at TED2015, he unveils a bold new technique — inspired, yes, by Terminator 2 — that's 25 to 100 times faster, and creates smooth, strong parts. Could it finally help to fulfill the tremendous promise of 3D printing?" – Source: TED
