In this article, we'll explore how this innovative method, which employs multiple acoustic holograms, works and examine its potential applications and limitations. What are Acoustic Holograms, and How ...

Multi-material 3D printing combines the functional properties of different materials (e.g., mechanical, electrical, color) within a single object that is fabricated without manual assembly. However, ...

An interesting research project out of MIT shows that it’s possible to embed machine-readable labels into 3D printed objects using nothing more than an FDM printer and filament that is transparent to ...
