Making the Future is a workshop which allows individuals to design and manufacture three-dimensional objects using a haptic interface and a subtractive rapid prototyping machine tool.In a typical session an individual will be able to choose from a set of basic solid shapes. These virtual clay solids can then be modified or reformed by a touch and mould process based upon a hand operated computer toolset. By the end of the session the complete compent will have been produced. The member of the public will have created an object of their own choice and witnessed its manufacture by an integrated manufacturing system.This experience will improve their understanding of the flexibility of shape and form that can be produced on modern manufacturing systems. It will give them an appreciation of further developments which will be available in the future as well as revealing the creativity required of engineering designers.

Making the Future是一个工作坊，允许个人使用触觉界面和减法快速原型机床设计和制造三维物体。在一个典型的会议中，个人将能够从一组基本的实体形状中进行选择。这些虚拟的粘土固体然后可以通过基于手动操作的计算机工具集的触摸和模制过程来修改或重新形成。到会议结束时，完整的组成部分将已产生。公众将创造一个他们自己选择的对象，并目睹它的生产由一个集成的制造系统。这种经验将提高他们的理解的灵活性的形状和形式，可以生产的现代制造系统。它将使他们了解未来的进一步发展，并揭示工程设计师所需的创造力。
