Holographic 3D printing breakthrough produces objects in less than a second


The technique is called Digital Incoherent Synthesis of Holographic light fields (DISH). Instead of assembling materials layer by layer, DISH projects a three-dimensional holographic light field directly into a resin volume, solidifying the entire object at once.

Harvard engineers 3D-print soft robots that bend, twist, grasp, and move on command


The method, described in Advanced Materials, replaces the slow, multi-step molding and casting process that traditionally defines soft robotics. Researchers have figured out how to 3D-print structures that twist, curl, or bend exactly as programmed, just by pumping air into their built-in channels.
