Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Michael Molitch-Hou is an additive manufacturing analyst. The aforementioned giants are, at the very least, using a technology ...

Researchers produced 3D-printed, semiconductor-free logic gates, which perform computations in active electronic devices. As they don't require semiconductor materials, they represent a step toward 3D ...

Infrared sensors, which act as the "seeing" component in devices such as LiDAR for autonomous vehicles, 3D face recognition ...

A research group has explored the potential production of micro-scale organic electronics for use in bioelectronics via multiphoton 3-D printers. When looking at the future of production of ...

Researchers at MIT have unexpectedly stumbled upon a way to 3D print active electronics – meaning transistors and components for controlling electrical signals – without the use of semiconductors or ...

3D bioprinting is a cutting-edge technology that enables the fabrication of living tissues and organs using a specialized 3D printer. It involves the precise layer-by-layer deposition of biomaterials ...

There was a time when a cheap 3D printer was almost certain to mean an awful kit of parts, usually a so-called “Prusa i3”, which was of course as far away in quality from the machines supplied by ...

As 3D-printed electrical circuits become more widely produced, the problem of electronic waste could correspondingly get worse. That's why Swiss scientists have developed a new natural-source "e-ink" ...

Credit: David Baillot/University of California San Diego/Cover Images Scientists in the United States have developed a walking robot that requires no electronics and can be produced entirely from a 3D ...

Australian startup Syenta has developed a 3D printer capable of printing highly complex and functional electronics like photovoltaics, batteries, sensors and more, promising to do so in ways that are ...

Electronics such as Bluetooth speakers can be 3D-printed from a material that dissolves in water within hours. That allows designers to rapidly create prototypes, enables easier recycling of the ...
