This study demonstrates a cost-effective portable fabrication system for 3D printing complex structures from polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). Material development and characterisation allowed for the design and production of a 3D printer that is capable of fabricating PDMS structures using a photo-initiator and a LED curing process. A 3D model of a participant’s ear was captured using a handheld scanner. These data were used to directly 3D print an ear. Micro-extrusion direct deposition of PDMS at room temperature is demonstrated via a custom designed 3D printer, with in situ UV cross-linking to...

World-famous monuments are being threatened by climate change, wars, and neglect. 3D scans, drones, and AI can be used to create digital backups of iconic buildings and other cultural treasures.

Paul Gradl, an engineer for NASA, used 3D-structured light scanning to compare the different stages of his wife's pregnancy.

And even then, the five—metre—tall statue had to be printed in acrylic resin in 1a different pieces, which were then glued together and covered in marble dust. of course, now the data exists from the 3d scan, it's not a big leap to think that in the future anyone could download it and 3d—print their own version of david. the data isn't being made available at the moment though. it's being kept under wraps by the museum, i guess as an insurance policy, just in case anything happens to the original. now, here's the slight quirk. most visitors only get to see david's top half, which is a re...
