Fun Techtivities in May!
With the June school holidays just around the corner, May in Singapore is the perfect time for families to gear up for adventure! Whether you are looking for a tech-infused escape into nature or a digital quest in the wild, this month’s lineup is designed to help students recharge and reconnect through innovation and creativity.
But first, a quick #TechNews to kick things off! 🤖✨ What if houses could be “printed” like giant objects? That’s exactly what construction tech companies are doing.
3D-printed homes use robotic arms and special concrete to build structures quickly, affordably, and sustainably. From emergency housing to full-scale neighborhoods, this innovation is reshaping architecture and could help solve global housing shortages. 🏡
