3D Printer Meats

This week they have more spectacular announcements. They’ve been working with the French Culinary Institute to produce what is perhaps the most advanced forms of printed food yet.

In this example they’ve managed to produce a cookie with an embedded “C” (click for larger image). The “C” is made of chocolate dough – illustrating the critical [...]

Now, 3D printers to print tiny robotic insects

London: 3D printers could soon create the perfect insect wing, a feat perfected by nature over millennia.

The Pentagon’s Defense Advance Projects Research Agency (DARPA) is in need of micro-aircraft to explore caves and other hiding places and transmit information back to base. And tiny robotic insects would make the perfect fly-on-the-wall snooping devices.

‘Printer’ Creates Organs for Transplant

(Newser) – The principles of 3D printing are being applied to medicine, raising the possibility that doctors might someday be able to produce human organs for transplant and end the use of waiting lists. California biotech company Organovo already has a prototype of the so-called “bioprinter,” which uses two printer heads to place cells (“bioink”) [...]

3D Printer Wants to Print Human Organs

The 3D-Bioplotter takes computer aided designs from a PC and build biomaterials. Anxious geeks building girlfriends in AutoCAD as we speak.

Germany company, envisionTEC, has developed a Rapid Prototyping tool for processing biomaterials. Using a process called Computer Aided Tissue Engineering, which has nothing to do with Kleenex but everything with us, the Bioplotter can fabricate [...]
