Ford has continually developed new ideas for truck beds, and its latest shows a 3D printer becoming part of the many accessories fitted to the F-150 of the future.
This device would work in conjunction with another idea that Ford patented recently, namely a robotic arm, and could be used on construction sites to create necessary components on-site.
Many of the Blue Oval's recent innovations have been centered around this multi-function bed and its robotic arm, suggesting that it has a real shot at production.

First we had hand cranks. Then real keys, followed by key fobs. And now we have “digital keys,” which enables you to lock, unlock, and start your car from your phone.
Before digital key technology can reach ubiquity, there are still a lot of issues that need to be worked out. What kinds of technology should be used: Near-field communication (NFC)? Ultra wideband (UWB)? Bluetooth? How do we ensure it’s safe from hackers? And what happens when your phone runs out of batteries?
The need for global standards and solutions for smartphone and in-vehicle connectivity is what’s spurring the industry to come together to formulate a plan for the future.
According to GlobalData, there are 10+ companies, spanning technology vendors, established automotive companies, and up-and-coming start-ups engaged in the development and application of intelligent in-vehicle displays.
