With 3D printing becoming such a growing industry in current times, you can bet that the explosive innovation is creating some amazing things. We’ve seen 3D printing used for a variety of things, like ...

While 3D printers can now build homes, entire robots, skin, and even cheesecakes, they’ve been fairly limited when it comes to the world of soft robotics—which are robots that are made of more ...

MIT's MultiFab 3D printer can print 10 different materials at once, has an open-platform design, and can be built for under $7,000. Sound impossible? It's not. Can you buy that printer now? Not yet.

Researchers have developed photonic devices that manipulate light to enable innovative applications, like pocket-sized 3D printers. Sabrina Corsetti, a PhD candidate at MIT, and her collaborators in ...

MIT researchers built a 3D printer that can produce a fully functioning electric linear motor in about three hours for 50 cents in materials. Linear motors are typically used in optical systems and ...

The use of 3D printing has been praised as an alternative to traditional construction. It promises to deliver faster construction times, creative design, and fewer construction errors, all while ...

Multi-material 3D printing lets users fabricate customized objects with multiple colors and varied textures. Yet the process can be time-consuming and wasteful because existing 3D printers must switch ...
