3d printed robots

No matter how you slice it, the world of robotics is serious business. As scientists around the world mix robotics and 3D printing, we see incredible innovations emerging that will…

We’ve certainly spent a lot of time considering what might happen when robots truly can think like us, but very likely not a lot (on the part of the layman,…

Robots and the field of robotics itself definitely serve a number of elevated purposes, far beyond what many of us simple folk crave, dreaming of a home assistant that never complains…

Wevolver is a site we’ve followed continually, gleaning great inspiration from a range of international designers and artists. If you need a quick technological fix or a little pick-me-up just…

Open source technology platform Wevolver was honored as an outstanding innovator at SXSW this year, and for good reason. The network, which was developed by makers with backgrounds in design and…

“…And a robot is born.” Remember that part of your heart reserved solely for fluffy kitties, furry puppies, and sleepy hedgehogs? Tell everyone to scooch over—that’s right—and make some room…

Those pesky evil, caveperson-obsessed robots from the future are at it again in a new stop motion video from 3D printed toy maker Hauke Scheer. If you’ve never seen any…

By now we are all quite aware that 3D printing is allowing for some very serious work, discovery, and progress in labs and hospitals all around the world. As you…

A swarm of robots that can think for themselves – it sounds like a terrifying sci-fi robot apocalypse film scenario, but it’s not – it’s reality. Feeling a bit anxious?…

Sometimes in order to express possibilities for the future we can reach back into the past, in this case the Biblical past, for images to capture the stage that today’s technology is…

The fourth installment of Bethesda’s Fallout series of video games has continued its long run as one of the most critically and financially successful properties in the industry — and…

International competitions like the Aerial Robotics Competition, held recently in Beijing, are a perfect example of how contests among students are not only incredibly motivating and exciting, but are also…

Robotics has become one of the most common forms of advanced technology in the world, and just about everyone in the developed world uses them daily. Many of us probably…

Reiner Schmidt, an engineering graduate from Hamilton, Ontario, has been working with robots of all kinds for the last ten years. His experience ranges across projects involving robotics for applications from HAZMAT…

As robotics and 3D printing converge to a point where some are left jokingly questioning if the two technologies will one day take over the world, Intel appears to be…

While we’ve covered numerous applications for 3D printing involving robotics, it’s the future of the two converging technologies that really gets us excited. Not only does 3D printing enable rapid iterations…

We’ve said it once and we’ll say it again, 3D printing and robotics continue to converge upon one another at a rapid rate. 3D printing has become a go-to solution…

While robotics has been one of the technologies ‘of the future’ ever since I can remember, the field is finally coming into its own led by demands in manufacturing, along…

Two technologies which are sure to lead the way to a brighter future, as well as boatloads of profits for those developing them, are 3D printing and robotics. These two…

The PLEN2 is a robot kit which includes all necessary parts – control boards, servo motors, and accessories needed to build a rather sophisticated 20 centimeter tall version of what…

It was a distinct pleasure to join a tour of the Manufacturing Development Facility (MDF) of Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) on June 23rd, 2015. Our group consisted of College,…

As annual passholders to Disney, my family and I spend many weekends there getting more than our money’s worth of fun–as well as deep inspiration. While I lumber in the…

Hengjiu Kang, Yi Lu, and Yunan Song are students at the University of California Davis, juniors and seniors with a mighty impressive list of career-starting projects and internships. Kang is a…

John Villwock and Mikhail Stolpner met at Cornell University, and while they were there, the pair say their introduction to the cutting edge of research and development got them excited…
