A US federal judge has stopped the release of blueprints that enable the production of untraceable 3D-printed plastic guns. District judge Robert Lasnik said, “There is a possibility of irreparable harm because of the way
Two developments this week shine light on newly engineered treatments for the eye. Tissue engineering researchers at Newcastle University (UK) have delivered the first 3D printed human cornea, aimed to help those afflicted with corneal
A UCLA bioengineer has established a method that uses a specially modified 3D printer to shape therapeutic biomaterials from multiple sources. The development could be a step towards on-demand production of multifaceted artificial tissues for
Engineers at the University of Minnesota have printed an electrical circuit using silver ink onto a volunteer’s hand. Although to date, the circuit has only been demonstrated to power a small LED, researchers hope that
The Warren Centre’s 2017 Innovation Lecture in Sydney with Andrew Harris showed how prototyping and radical new technologies are changing the delivery of complex infrastructure around the world.
Engineers in the Netherlands have built the world’s first 3D-printed concrete bridge which opened in the southeastern town of Gemert on Tuesday. The eight-metre cyclist and pedestrian bridge, designed by the Eindhoven University of Technology
Microfabrication engineers are developing technology that might merge every childhood vaccine into one injection, aiming to increase efficiency and effectiveness to defeat childhood viruses, as well as relieve parents’ headaches. Several individual time-sequenced medicines are
In an unusual application of rapid prototype manufacturing techniques, biomedical engineering researchers at Piedmont Hospital in the USA are printing rubber simulations of patients’ hearts, including their valves. An intermediate rubber heart is used to
Ornate gothic and neo-classical architectural detailing expired with the Industrial Revolution, but the global 3D printing revolution is enabling a modern renaissance. Previous attempts to print concrete have failed to scale up successfully, but a
