Researchers from New York Genome Center and New York University have recently developed an open source 3d Printed microfluidic controller. The device fits on a bedside and can be obtained and assembled for around $600, so it’s really cheaper than other comparable instruments. “Most commercial microfluidic instruments are very costly; as a result, not every lab has access…
OpenCat is a project to build a robot cat and is an interesting project that demonstrates how much you can do with not a great deal. This project has been created to provide a robot suitable for STEM education and programming, which is equipped with artificial intelligence and capable of a wide variety of different manoeuvres….
In the summer of 2017 Prusa moved to a new building searching for more room. In this new place they finally have enough space for a proper 3D Print Farm: they have a total of 300 3D printers at the moment, but the planned capacity is 500 by this summer. The printer composition is a mix of Original Prusa…
Youtuber Bob Clagett is a huge fan of 80’s toys and movies. Inspired by Transformers he decided to realize his dream: build his own life-sized Optimus Prime ion blaster. Now, after hours of 3D printing and finishing, he finally has something worthy of that universe. Inside, sound and lighting effects are controlled by an Arduino, which…
Taken from the original post on 3DPrint.com. “How many 3D printers could a 3D printer 3D print if a 3D printer could 3D print 3D printers?” Colorado-based Aleph Objects brought nine LulzBot 3D printers and four techs to Las Vegas, crafting new LulzBot Mini components and assembling new 3D printers in a show floor factory…
After finding that purchasing a tracking device for his satellite dish would be quite expensive, YouTuber “Tysonpower” decided to simply build one himself. He made it with 3D-printed parts and extruded aluminum that uses a pair of NEMA23 stepper motors for movement. While it doesn’t quite work with the dish itself due to its offset…
The maker Danzetto to cure his meats decided to build himself a fully automatic meat curing chamber, called the curebOS, with the aid of a raspberry pi. This mini fridge has everything. Sitting on top is a control system containing the Pi. There are 5 relays used for the lights, circulating fan, ventilating fans, refrigerator,…
