If you can 3D-scan it, you can 3D-print it – and Matter and Form has announced a super-versatile new way to do so. The Three system creates photorealistic, high-detail, full-color 3D scans of objects ...

It seems to make sense. If you have a 3D printer, you might wish you could just scan some kind of part and print it — sort of like a 3D photocopier. Every time we think about this, though, we watch a ...

A new artificial intelligence system pinpoints the origin of 3D printed parts down to the specific machine that made them. The technology could allow manufacturers to monitor their suppliers and ...

A new scanner can provide three-dimensional (3D) photoacoustic images of millimeter-scale veins and arteries in seconds. The scanner, developed by researchers at University College London (UCL), ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature Biomedical Engineering, researchers developed a three-dimensional (3D) photoacoustic tomography (PAT) scanner for rapid vascular imaging. Visualizing ...

Join me as I explore 3D scanning with the Einstar Vega all-in-one handheld scanner. In this video, I scan a DeWalt 9ft tape measure, process the scan on my computer, and 3D print replicas to evaluate ...

The scientists were able to observe the hemifusomes because they used a method called cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) to generate their images. This technique involved rapidly freezing cells from ...

3D printing isn’t only about creating trinkets and toys — it can also help send humans into space. In a watershed move, NASA has successfully tested a rocket part created via 3D printer, a move that ...

Poor orientation can lead to weak spots, rough surfaces, warping, or excessive support structures. A well-chosen orientation, on the other hand, improves structural performance, visual finish, and ...

Good health is something that everyone wants to have. New Mexico Shoes, one of the longest-running family-owned shoe businesses in the state, wants to share why having your shoes fit properly is ...
