♪♪                               >>> WHAT ARE WE DOING?

>> WE'RE BACK, NOW, WITH WHAT    COULD BE THE FUTURE OF FOOTWEAR.

The second conditional

WHAT IF YOU HAD YOUR FEET MAPPED AND WALK OUT WITH A SNEAKER

THAT'S BEEN PERFECTLY CUSTOMIZED FOR YOUR FOOT?

>> THAT SOUNDS GOOD.             THAT'S THE CONCEPT OF A NEW PAIR

OF SHOES RESULTING IN A          COLLABORATION BETWEEN ADIDAS AND

CARBON.                          JOSEPH C. SIMONE IS THE FOUNDER

AND CEO.                         AND TORI BOWIE IS SPONSORED BY

ADIDAS AND A LEGEND.             HOW DOES THIS WORK?

THIS IS A 3D PRINTER.            YOU'RE MOLDING THE SHOE TO OUR

FOOT?                            >> THAT'S RIGHT.

THE MID SOLE FOR THE SHOE WAS    MADE ON A PRINTER SIMILAR TO

THIS.                            WE'RE PRINTING SOMETHING THAT'S

SIMILAR TO THE MID SOLE IN       MID-TIME.

THIS IS GOING TO BE ABOUT SIX    MINUTES.

WE CAN MAKE COMPLEX STRUCTURES,  TAILORED TO PEOPLE.

WHY CAN'T THEY DO THAT WITHOUT A 3D PRINTER?

>> THE COMFORT AND THE STRIKE    ZONE HOW YOU WALK.

YOU WANT A SHOE FOR MATT OR      SAVANNAH OR TORI.

TAKE DATA AND USE MATHEMATICS TO DESIGN A SHOE FOR ABINDIVIDUAL.

AND IT'S FINISHING IN REAL-TIME. >> YOU'RE WEARING A PAIR OF

THESE.                           DOES IT FEEL DIFFERENT FROM

>> OF COURSE IT DOES.            THEY FEEL AMAZING.

I MEAN, THEY'RE TAILORED JUST TO FIT MY FEET.

>> DO YOU THINK IT WOULD GIVE    YOU AN ADVANTAGE?

>> IT GIVES ME AN EXTRA BOOST,   AN EXTRA BOUNCE.

MORE ENERGY.                     I THINK THIS IS OUR FUTURE RIGHT

HERE.                            >> THIS ONE HAS BEEN COMPLETED.

AND IT WAS JUST AT THE BEGINNING WHEN I WALKED IN THE STUDIO.

>> WE PRINT SHOES IN TENS OF     MINUTES.

WHAT THIS MEANS IS ABOUT         QUALITY, SPEED AND SCALE.

YOU CAN DO THIS NOT JUST FOR     INDIVIDUAL HIGH-PERFORMANCE

ATHLETES BUT EVERYBODY CAN GET A CUSTOM SHOE.

>> IS THE VISION THAT YOU GO     INTO THE SHOESTORE AND THERE'S

ONE OF THESE.                    AND YOU WALK OUT MINUTES LATER

WITH YOUR CUSTOM SHOE?           >> YOU GO IN A STORE AND GET

MEASURED.                        AND WITHIN DAYS, THEY CAN

>> AS WE LOOK BACK HERE -- WHAT  WE CAN DO IS GO BEYOND FOOTWEAR.

WE'LL MAKE THESE IN THE HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS AND MILLIONS AND

TENS OF MILLIONS.                BUT THIS TECHNOLOGY ALSO LENL L

ITSELF TO APPLICATIONS IN        AUTOMOTIVE, AEROSPACE, AND

DRONES.                          ALL THESE INDIVIDUAL PARTS.

THIS PART WOULD BE HARD TO       FABRICATE THINGS LIKE THIS.

AND THIS CAME OUT OF A DIGITAL   PRINTER.
