Generally speaking, objects made on desktop 3D printers are pretty small. This is of course no surprise, as filament based printers are fairly slow and most don’t have very large beds to begin with.

Combining manual and automated techniques, the 3D printing process created a concrete wall from an innovative mortar based on white cement. From a total of 60 individual segments, the wall was built ...

The Troy, N.Y.-based Lighting Research Center (LRC), part of the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, recently partnered with Eaton Corp. to develop a fully 3D-printed, LED-integrated luminaire as part ...

A strip of LEDs may be a simple and flexible way to add light to a project, but they don’t always look natural. There is an easy way to make them look better, though: add a diffuser. That’s what [Nate ...

Last month, Ikea and teenage engineering launched the Frekvens collection of lighting and speaker modules. Now teenage engineering has added a bunch of CAD files to the mix so that owners can print ...

Though we don’t quite have the technology to make three-dimensional holograms a reality yet, companies like PORTL and Microsoft are working on it. But a third company decided to forego the traditional ...

Combining laser engraving with 3D printing creates unique, customizable items quickly and inexpensively. Creative projects like edge-lit lamps, kinetic coasters, and wood-inlay magnets showcase the ...

In somewhat of a departure from its usual parametric, experimental work, Margot Krasojević Architects has created a recycled, 3D printed LED light, in an investigation of the importance of ...

We can safely say that major companies are interested in 3D printed electronics, at least from a research and development perspective. However, this may be somewhat quotidian, given what may be in ...
