3D printing has become mainstream. For a few hundred euros you can buy a 3D printer online. But what about 4D printing? How do you print an object that can change over time, for example by reacting to ...
A new type of "ink" makes it possible to 3D print electrochemically switchable, conducting polymers using a light-based ...
Have you ever imaged high-resolution 3D structures at the micro/nanoscale that react dynamically to their surroundings? The 4D printing technology is changing the game by using smart materials that ...
A new project was spotted wherein a dress was equipped with LED strips to light in the dark with either blue or pink light. The interesting thing about this project is that a parent did it for their ...
