Scientists from The Hebrew University of Jerusalem have created wood ink that can be extruded into flat wooden structures, self-morphing into complex 3D shapes as they dry and shrink. The researchers ...

Forget your regular ol’ 3D printer. Why not try using sound waves to form a 3D object? That’s exactly what researchers in Germany set out to do, making use of “acoustic holograms” to form distinct 3D ...

The idea of growing organs or tissues for medical use still sounds like science fiction — and indeed, it's an incredibly difficult thing to do. 3D-printing technology has shown some promise in the ...

The ancient art of origami is well known for transforming sheets of paper and other foldable materials into complex 3D shapes. But now, chemical engineers have extended the centuries-old practice to ...

Wooden objects are usually made by sawing, carving, bending or pressing. But now, scientists have developed flat wooden shapes extruded by a 3D printer which can be programmed to self-morph into ...

I took a sculpture class once that had us do a project using cardboard, and it turns out you can do some pretty crazy stuff with those flimsy little layers. I imagine, with enough planning and ...
