16. MAKERS ARE A GREAT COMMUNITY OF LEARNERS AND PROBLEM
SOLVERS. WE COME FROM A VARIETY OF BACKGROUND. MAKERS
ARE PEOPLE LIKE YOU AND ME. HAVE MADE MANY FRIENDS THAT
HELP UNDERSTAND AND MAKE LEARNING ACCESSIBLE AND
FRIENDLY.
IoT IS MADE SIMPLE TOGETHER WITH MAKERS SINCE THE MAKERS
COMMUNITY UNDERSTAND DESIGN THINKING PROCESS TO SOLVE
PROBLEMS TOGETHER. WITH USE OF OWN OR DIY PARTS TO
REDUCE COSTS, AND TOGETHER WITH 3D PRINTING AND ROBOTS
TO ILLUSTRATE, AN IKEA TYPE SHOWCASE EXPERIENCE TO SHOW
AND EXPERIENCE IoT WILL DO WONDERS FOR A VISITOR
AND IS ENGAGING FOR ANY VISITOR, FROM DIFFERENT INDUSTRY,
RATHER THAN JUST SHOWING TECHNICAL ILLUSTRATIONS &
DIAGRAMS WHICH MEANS NOTHING MUCH FOR A NON TECHNICAL
PERSON. HELP US HELP OTHERS (THE RAKYAT) TOGETHER .
