A new kind of shape-shifting material can twist, bend, and snap into more than a dozen three-dimensional forms—no motors or ...

An AI method enables the generation of sharp, high-quality 3D shapes that are closer to the quality of the best 2D image models. Previous approaches typically generated blurry or cartoonish 3D shapes.

In science and engineering, it's unusual for innovation to come in one fell swoop. It's more often a painstaking plod through ...

D printing has long left its niche existence and is now used in countless fields. Where the technology is already routinely ...

EPFL scientists have created a breakthrough 3D printing method that uses hydrogels as templates to produce ultra-dense, durable metals and ceramics.

Researchers at Nvidia Corp. closed out this year’s GTC 2024 conference today by unveiling a new, more powerful text-to-3D generative artificial intelligence model. It’s called LATTE3D, and it works by ...

Researchers at NC State develop a magnetic Chinese lantern that snaps into multiple shapes. This shape-shifting device, ...

The idea of growing organs or tissues for medical use still sounds like science fiction — and indeed, it's an incredibly difficult thing to do. 3D-printing technology has shown some promise in the ...

Most coffee lovers typically dump the used grounds from their morning cuppa straight into the trash; those more environmentally inclined might use them for composting. But if you're looking for a ...
