In the early days of the Covid-19 pandemic, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention produced a simple chart to illustrate how measures like mask wearing and social distancing could “flatten the curve” and reduce the peak of infections. The…
Engineers Create 3D-Printed Objects That Sense How a User Is Interacting With ThemA designer could use this method to 3D print interactive input devices, like a joystick, switch, or handheld controller
Wed, 10/27/2021 - 12:01
MIT researchers have developed a new method to 3D print mechanisms that detect how force is being applied to an object. The structures are made from a single piece of material, so they can be rapidly prototyped. A designer could use this method to…
