న్యూజిలాండ్ బౌలర్లు వేసిన బౌన్సర్లకు ఆస్ట్రేలియా బ్యాట్స్మెన్ కాస్త ఇబ్బందిపడ్డారు. ఆసీస్ కీపర్ బ్యాట్స్మెన్ వేడ్ ఏకంగా ఓసారి కిందపడిపోయాడు. ఈ క్రమంలో అతడి పోజు ప్రఖ్యాత పాప్ సింగర్ మైఖెల్ జాక్సన్ను తలపించింది.

ఆస్ట్రేలియా-న్యూజిలాండ్ జట్ల మధ్య జరుగుతోన్న టెస్టులో ఓ అరుదైన ఘటన చోటుచేసుకుంది. ఆసీస్ మిడిలార్డర్ బ్యాట్స్మెన్ మాథ్యూ వేడ్.. న్యూజిలాండ్ బౌలర్ల బౌన్సులు, యార్కర్లు తట్టుకోలేక ఒకసారి కిందపడిపోయాడు. ఈ క్రమంలో ప్రపంచ ప్రఖ్యాత డ్యాన్సర్‌, దివంగత పాప్ సింగర్ మైఖెల్ జాక్సన్‌లా కనువిందు చేశాడు.
జాక్సన్ వేసే యాంటీ గ్రావిటేషనల్ స్టెప్‌ను అనుసరించినట్లుగా వేడ్ కనిపించాడు. శరీర బరువుని అదుపులో పెట్టుకొని ముందుకు సాగినట్లు కనిపించడం వల్ల ఆస్ట్రేలియాకు చెందిన ఓ క్రీడా వెబ్‌సైట్‌ ఈ ఫొటోను ట్విట్టర్‌లో పోస్టు చేసింది.
ఈ మ్యాచ్లో వేడ్ 38 పరుగులు చేసి గ్రాండ్హోమ్ బౌలింగ్లో ఔటయ్యాడు. స్మిత్ (77), లబుషేన్ (63) అర్ధశతకాలతో రాణించారు. ఫలితంగా తొలిరోజు ఆట పూర్తయ్యే సరికి ఆసీస్ నాలుగు వికెట్ల నష్టానికి 257 పరుగులు చేసింది.

"We can clearly see that the industry is under pressure. We can see that the technology of today results in large storage spaces, huge distribution networks and problems with transportation. The problems stem from the fact that we have a mass production system. And mass production is only necessary because we need casting forms and injection casting forms (used in manufacturing) and large machines that need to be set. 3D printing is an alternative to that. We save time, costs and we can put the production in any part of the world."

"If we look at automotive manufacturing today, we have already moved to a somewhat on-demand model. So, 3D printing would be helpful for current infrastructure. But, looking into the future, mobility will be a lot more personalised depending on geography. So the ability to customise vehicles easily and quickly will be a definite advantage for the future."

LEADIN
A German 3D company has created a prototype of a fully 3D printed car.
The LOCI car from BigRep is an early concept, an electric engine will be fitted next year, but the company says it points to the future of automobile production.
STORYLINE
This is the LOCI, a fully 3D printed car concept from the Berlin-based company BigRep.
Even the tyres have been printed, setting it apart from previous 3D printed car projects.
You won't see it on the roads anytime soon though, the LOCI is just a prototype at this stage.
But, according to BigRep, it can point to the future where vehicles are created in large 3D printing machines instead of standard factories.
The largest part in the car measures 1000 x 600 x 700 mm, fully printed in one piece.
Normal car production is a time-consuming process, entire factories have to be set to create a new car.
But with 3D printing, the printer can change the process, and the parts it is printing, as soon as the designer uploads a new product plan to the printer.
"The vehicle consists of only 14 3D printed parts. The development, from an idea to a finished product, only took 12 weeks," says Daniel Buening, Chief Innovation Officer BigRep.
It is unlikely that the automotive industry will change from the traditional production models to 3D printing anytime soon.
But the BigRep says 3D printing could bring advantages to the industry in the future.
One example: vehicles could be customised instantly.
Tall people could order cars with slightly more headspace in the cockpit and people with disabilities could get cars that were suited to their needs.
"It means that you can design and produce faster. You can print the parts that you need on-demand," says Buening.
"And you can also look at the sustainability aspect: moving spare parts around the world won't be needed if you produce them locally in the factories instead of flying them across the world."
The different parts in the LOCI car have Near Field Communication chips integrated directly in the parts.
That means that if a part needs to be replaced, an engineer can just point a smartphone at the part and get all the details.
That can then be sent to the 3D printer and a spare part can be printed instantly.
"What we have here is the so-called BigRep part of the DNA. With the help of NFC chips, it allows us to get information about the parts through a quick scan. At a later stage, in the production in the factory, it will allow the staff to scan the parts and get information about the parts in order to print them in one of our machines," explains Buening.
With the German car industry facing growing pressures from harder regulations, the switch to electrification and new competition from companies like Tesla - this could prove a threat to some car manufacturers.
Although, Martin Back, CEO of BigRep concedes that 3D printing is unlikely to be a part of standard car production anytime soon, he thinks in the future it could help the industry adapt to a new production climate.
"We really think that 3D printing is one of the technologies that can give the industry answers to the challenges of the future," he explains.
Founded in Berlin in 2014, BigRep claims to produce the world's largest 3D printers.
The company also has offices in Boston, US and Singapore and has previously created a fully 3D printed motorbike.
The bulk of their work is creating parts that are then integrated into engines and machines that have to a large degree been produced in a standard traditional way.
Back, himself, has previously worked in the auto supply industry, and he sees great potential for 3D printing in the auto manufacturing industry.
Back explains:
"We can clearly see that the industry is under pressure. We can see that the technology of today results in large storage spaces, huge distribution networks and problems with transportation. The problems stem from the fact that we have a mass-production system. And mass production is only necessary because we need casting forms and injection casting forms (used in manufacturing) and large machines that need to be set. 3D printing is an alternative to that. We save time, costs and we can put the production in any part of the world."
BigRep claims that the LOCI will be fitted with an electric engine at the start of 2020 and test drives will take place soon after.
Nicole Scott, an editor of Mobile Geeks technology news website, says the aspect of 3D printed cars being printed on-demand and changed depending on the customers' needs, could be beneficial in the future.
"If we look at automotive manufacturing today, we have already moved to a somewhat on-demand model. So, 3D printing would be helpful for current infrastructure. But, looking into the future, mobility will be a lot more personalised depending on geography. So the ability to customise vehicles easily and quickly will be a definite advantage for the future."
BigRep sees LOCI as a possible autonomous pod car in the future.
One that will take passengers on the final kilometres of their travel, for example from train stations to home.
