Even the smallest surface defect or slight roughness can significantly affect component performance. A micron-scale imperfection may appear insignificant at first; however, it can significantly alter ...

Optical 3D surface scanning is used increasingly to assess spinal deformity of patients with scoliosis. However, approaches based on optical 3D scanning often underestimate the spinal deformity. To ...

Vertical three-dimensional solar tower developer Janta Power announced it has closed a $5.5 million seed funding round led by Mac Venture Capital and Collab Capital. The funds are expected to help the ...

A gem of a find by The Public Domain Review of a collection from the Rijksmuseum: photographs of plaster models of the Moon’s surface that were made from observations of the Moon through a telescope.

According to the University of Liège, physicists have developed a method to sculpt the surface of water using 3D printed conical spines and surface tension. By carefully arranging these spines close ...

A 75-year-old cyclist who suffered serious injuries after being hit by a drunk driver has just received a custom 3D printed facial prosthesis—the first of its kind made by the NHS at the Bristol 3D ...

If there’s one thing that turns people off from adopting new tech, it’s being forced to look silly and feel uncomfortable for extended lengths of time. It was always the Achilles' heel for 3D in the ...
