In 2019 alone, the US generated 66 million tons of food waste. The majority of that waste (60 percent) ended up in landfills.

Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have developed a specialized 3D printer that utilizes food waste as a raw material. Called the FOODres.AI Printer, it can turn everyday ...

Recycling of Multi-Material 3D Printed Objects through Computational Design and Disassembly by Dissolution Multi-material 3D printing combines the functional properties of different materials (e.g., ...

Illusory Material, the winner of the Experimental category in the 2020 Innovation by Design Awards, is a method for designing and printing dynamic objects, with potential applications in fashion ...

A designer could use this method to 3D print “interactive input devices,” like a joystick, ... Engineers create 3D-printed objects that sense how a user is interacting with them.

This is the first biodegradable 3D-printed plastic on the market, and it is also food safe, which means you can make cups, plates, and cutlery out of this vaguely tan-colored plastic.

“In this project, we will be investigating the mechanical stability and environmental response of 3D-printing materials that are currently being used by museum professionals in three different ...

3D printing is a downright futuristic technology. People can use plastic filaments, resin, and other materials to create custom objects. The quality of the print is limited by a user's printer ...
