SEOULTECH Researchers Make Auxetic 3D Printed Pressure Sensors for Wearables
In a recent paper, Seoul National University of Science and Technology (SEOULTECH) researchers look at “Additively Manufactured 3D Auxetic Metamaterials for Structurally Guided Capacitive and Resistive Tactile Sensing.” Mingyu Kang, Hong-Gap…
Glasgow University Develops 3D Printed PEEK Lattices with Tuned Auxetic Properties
Glasgow University researchers have made PEEK-based lattice parts with tunable auxetic properties. The team published their work in Materials Horizons, building on similar work from last year with PLA. In…
Hybrid Meta-Biomaterials Used to Make Better, Longer-Lasting 3D Printed Hip Implants
3D printing is increasingly seeing applications using biomaterials and metamaterials – and now with a new meta-biomaterial. A team of researchers from TU Delft developed the hybrid materials – essentially the biomedical variant…
Sensible & Lovely! Japanese Designer Uses 3D Scanning, Printing & Auxetics to Create Truly Wearable Apparel
We’ve been telling you about 3D scanning via Artec 3D’s hardware and software for quite some time now, along with tools like Microsoft’s Kinect, popular in areas such as full…
