3D printers are an excellent tool to have on hand, largely because they can print other tools and parts rapidly without needing to have them machined or custom-ordered. 3D printers have dropped in ...

Back in the previous century, one of the most common expectations about the future was that it would include robot assistants for all. The Jetsons had one, the crew of the C-57D had one, the Robinsons ...

Vietnamese scientists at Australia's University of New South Wales have invented a mini robot arm capable of 3D printing biomaterial directly within a person's body. The research group from the ...

MobiPrint robot autonomously prints designs directly onto floors Developed for accessibility, inspired by tactile markers for navigation Future plans include AI for larger, adaptable, on-site printing ...

Speaking of the robot, it imagines a complex mechanism combining a number of small parts, but almost all parts such as legs, hydraulic pumps, crankshafts etc. necessary for the mechanism of the robot ...

Two Cornell University architecture professors designed a cabin that is partially 3D printed. The design uses ash trees infected with an invasive beetle species that are not suitable for sawmills. The ...

Among the more than 8,000 lb (3,600 kg) of cargo that blasted off from Cape Canaveral on the 30th of January, bound for the International Space Station, were two firsts: the world’s first metal 3D ...

While there are many potential uses for soft-bodied robots, the things are still typically only built in small experimental batches. Scottish scientists are out to change that, with a ...

Engineers have developed a flexible robot that enters the rectum to 3D print living cells on damaged organs, eliminating the need for patients to 'go under the knife.' The University of South Wales ...
