A new twist on two-photon polymerization has been used to deliver objects, including lasers and an elephant, directly into ...

MIT researchers have developed a generative AI system that allows users to personalize 3D-printed objects without weakening ...

Everybody likes 3D printing, right? But it’s slow compared to 2D laser cutting. If only there were a way to combine multiple 2D slices into a 3D model. OK, we know that you’re already doing it by hand ...

Mooz is aiming to fill in the gap between cheap, flimsy home 3D printers and expensive industrial gear with a modular all-in-one design offering interchangeable heads providing the ability to easily ...

A research team has achieved a new milestone in 3D X-ray imaging technology. The scientists have captured high-resolution CT scans of the interior of a large, dense object -- a gas turbine blade -- ...

A new portable device combines laser scanning technology with cameras to create precise 3D images in colour. It could be used for everything from infrastructure inspection to construction to robot ...

A 3D printer that uses lasers to build up an object in any order, rather than layer by layer, could produce more advanced designs than is currently possible. Existing 3D printers work by depositing ...

How do you create complex 3D-printed objects in seconds, instead of hours or days? A team of scientists and engineers led by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) has developed a process that ...

Earlier in the year, our own Sebastian Anthony had the opportunity to experience the new “IMAX with laser” cinema in Leicester Square, and it didn’t disappoint. Not to be outdone, Dolby Laboratories ...

HOUSTON -- (Feb. 22, 2016) -- Rice University bioengineering researchers have modified a commercial-grade CO2 laser cutter to create OpenSLS, an open-source, selective laser sintering platform that ...

Multi-material 3D printing combines the functional properties of different materials (e.g., mechanical, electrical, color) within a single object that is fabricated without manual assembly. However, ...
