Telescoping 3D printed robots developed to help in search & rescue

3D printing has been used to help create a program for exploring the possibilities of objects that can be extended and compacted at will. As a deployable feature that can be added to a variety of shapes the technique has great potential across mechanical and civil engineering to make structures and innovative machines. In robotics, […]

3D printed safe-cracking robot steals show at DEF CON, taking just 30 mins to crack SentrySafe

An open source 3D printed robot created by Nathan Seidle, founder of Colorado-based hardware company SparkFun, has wowed DEF CON attendees by cracking a SentrySafe safe in just half an hour. The week before last, we ran a story about a 3D printed open source robot that could crack a safe in as little as 15 minutes. The device was developed by SparkFun’s Nathan Seidle, and only costs around $200 to make. It's now back in the headlines thanks to its appearance at a major global event.

Scientists 3D print complex ceramic microsystems for organ-on-a-chip biomedical research

A joint team of researchers from the Autonomous University of Madrid and ceramic 3D printing company Lithoz GmbH have developed complex 3D printed ceramic microsystems which could advance labs-on-chips and organs-on-chips. The joint team says its 3D printed ceramic device marks a breakthrough in the biomedical field.

Ilios says its Thermal Masking 3D printing tech results in 90% cheaper SLA printing

Cypriot 3D printer manufacturer Ilios has lifted the lid on its Thermal Masking technology, which can purportedly be used to 3D print Stereolithography (SLA) models at 1/10 the normal cost. The technology has been incorporated into the forthcoming €250 ($294) Ilios Nano SLA 3D printer.

3D printed smart hearing aid monitors wellness

University of California at Berkeley’s engineers have created a smart, wearable 3D printed device that is worn on the ear. The project was appropriately nicknamed the ‘earable, and is designed to track core body temperature using an IR sensor. Two in one – hearing aid and wellness monitor Though temperature sensors can be found in […]
