3d printing

A trauma surgeon and a team of engineers have designed and prototyped a new ventilator design that requires no electricity and can be 3D-printed using $10 worth of materials. This could be a game-changer during the COVID-19 pandemic and in…

Even pre-engineered robotic cells are expensive. The ArcWorld 1200 welding cell costs approximately $150,000 USD, about the same as a custom cell, but with the advantage of being plug and play. Recently though, engineers at the University…

Using video recorded on an ordinary smartphone, Carnegie Mellon University researchers have created an accurate, realistic, and uncreepy 3D reconstruction of someone's face. Using a smartphone to shoot a continuous video of the front and…

You read that right. Space agencies are working diligently to erect modules on the Moon for human colonization. In the process, European researchers have found that human urea could be used as a plaster of sorts in the concrete of the…

Because of the need to train users how to operate, manually adjust for exposure time and get the camera recalibrated if it’s accidentally disturbed, 3D cameras are not easy to use. They should be though, claims a Purdue University…

The risk of complications from third-degree burns include infections, blood loss, shock, tetanus, hypothermia and hypovolemia (low blood volume) are severe and life threatening. Skin grafts are painful and cause trauma to other parts of the…

A 1,9000-sq.-ft., three-bedroom home, 3D-printed in just 48 hours of print time, using less than $6,000 in materials? Yes, you heard it correctly. 3D printing is revolutionizing the way buildings are constructed and now, a company called …

For the first time ever, researchers have succeeded in printing a 3D image with stabilized gold nanoparticles with biodegradable and biocompatible polymer systems. What does this mean for pharmaceutical industry? University of Seville…

3D Printing isn't a new technology. It’s been in action since the late 1990’s. But over the last decade, this technology has successfully strengthened its presence in the manufacturing industry. With both consumer and commercial grade 3D…

By 2030, according to some estimates, one in six people will be over the age of 60. The need for technology that will take pressure off the healthcare system and allow seniors to age in place is, therefore increasing. Soft pressure sensors…
