Anyone can learn robotics, but what if there was a practical and inexpensive approach? This is where “Boca” comes in. Boca is a 3D printed open source platform for manufacturers and researchers interested in exploring control theory and Machine Learning. Boca has eight degrees of freedom, thanks to the 8 servo motors, with some great…
A team of researchers from Carnegie Mellon University has published a paper in Science that details a new technique allowing anyone to 3D bioprint tissue scaffolds out of collagen, the major structural protein in the human body. This first-of-its-kind method brings the field of tissue engineering one step closer to being able to 3D print a full-sized,…
The Formlabs Form 2 is our Spring 2019 pick for the “Best Resin 3D Printer”. Check out our review to find out why it is simply the best SLA printer right now. When it comes to 3D printing, FDM printers take all the glory; Ultimakers, Prusas, and Crealitys are talked about constantly. Their machines offer…
Evelyn Hriberšek’s EURYDIKE interactive art piece puts you in the dark; figuratively and, at times, literally. We caught up with the artist after experiencing the extended run of EURYDIKE. Evelyn Hriberšek is no stranger to the workings of augmented reality. An early pioneer of the technology, her efforts brought her to chair on the 2014…
E3D spinoff Pathio has released its brand new slicer Pathio for FDM/FFF 3D printers. Go to Source
Like cancer, heart disease and the many conditions surrounding it (along with other related systems in the human body) can often cause fatal complications, leading researchers around the world to… View the entire article via our website. Go to Source
Mahmooda Sultana and her team at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland won a $2 million technology development award to advance a nanomaterial-based detector platform which is capable of sensing everything from minute concentrations of gases and vapor, atmospheric pressure and temperature, and then transmitting that data via a wireless antenna. Go to…
Ian Bernstein, founder and head of product at Misty Robotics is calling for a departure from thinking of robots as tools and machines to thinking of them more as platforms. Misty is looking to employ the collective skills of STEM students, tinkerers, and robotics majors to begin programming and using the Misty II for their…
Mechanical engineer Isaac Porras has launched the new Solderdoodle Plus, an open source USB rechargeable soldering iron, more powerful than its predecessor Solderdoodle. It’s a cordless hot multi-tool that can be used as a soldering iron, 3D print finishing tool, and wood burner, all in the same package and it features 10 Watts of adjustable power. Solderdoodle Plus…
In 2012 the Tantillus was a small printer, with the entire frame fitting in a 250mm square, but still able to print a 100mm cube. You could print the entire printer, and it was adorable. In the past years this 3d printer has fallen by the wayside, but now it’s back. The Tantillus R(eborn) is the…
After a successfully launched Kickstarter campaign in 2015, the italian startup Collettivo Cocomeri, also known as Felfil srl, now offers for sale the Felfil Evo to reduce 3d printing waste and create custom recycled filament. “Plastic waste is obviously a big problem in the world today; it should tug at the conscience of any 3D…
Students at Lund University have faced an exciting technological challenge: developing proof-of-concept 3D printers that could print in chocolate fast. Only after the first chocolate layer solidification the next layer can be printed on top of the first. Fortunately, they weren’t working completely from scratch, as each team was given a low-cost 101Hero 3D printer…
