Researchers in Brazil and the UK found a way to turn recycled coffee pods into 3D-printed conductive materials that can be used to create caffeine detectors. With that, they demonstrated one of the ...

Doing just about anything in space is expensive, but a group of MIT scientists has found a way to bring down some costs — and perhaps help accelerate climate change research. The team has developed ...

I’ve always felt it was a waste of time to cry over things I can’t change. However, as I sat on my bedroom floor recently, struggling to twist open the glucose sensor my daughter needs to survive, ...

How do you fit a sensor to a unique brain? Researchers created personalized 3D-printed bioelectrodes that match individual ...

The printing techniques they report also could prove valuable in production of pharmaceuticals and chemicals. Microscopic image of a printed glass demonstration structure on tip of optical fiber.

Pressure sensors are important tools for accurate sensing of applied forces. However, they can mostly sense forces along only a single direction. In a new study, scientists take things to the next ...

Early 3D printers usually had a microswitch that let you know when the Z axis was at the zero point. There was usually an adjustment screw so you could tune for just the right layer height. But these ...

3D printing is a fantastic hobby that has definitely piqued a lot of people's interest over the past few years. What are some ...
