- Emerging technology can be really expensive and unreliable, when first comes out
- Inventions are not viable cus technology is not at state to use it yet
- Use of technologies, wether they are reliable, affordable,
- Drive innovation by allowing previously impossible designs to be manufactured.
- What happens to innovation if the needed technology is not available?
- Sometimes technology needs to catch up to designs and become affordable
