If it looks like a 3D printer and acts like a 3D printer, then it should be a 3D printer, if one were to follow the old adage about ducks. But that doesn't hold true for a new invention by a robotics ...

In future iterations, BotFactory believes it can 3D-print multi-layered surface-mounted circuit boards, like what’s inside your cell phone. That’s not going to be possible with the first generation of ...

In designing and prototyping electronic circuit boards there is no quick or simple way to produce results. Many hours of design and development need to be expended on prototype layouts along with ...

Update on Nov. 8 at 11:21 a.m. Pacific: Corrected to reflect the printer’s resolution which is 10 mil, not 10 millimeters, and to the timing of its fundraising plans. Cyril Ebersweiler, hardware ...

BotFactory cofounders Nicolas Vansnick and Carlos Ospina spoke exclusively to the International Business Times about their award-winning electronic circuit printer, which they plan to showcase at ...

Over the past few years, as the ‘maker‘ movement has taken hold, we have seen some spectacular projects emerge from people’s garages — all thanks to the wonder of tools such as 3D printers. Now, after ...

When people talk about home hack projects that can be put together in a workshop, a lot depends on just what kind of workshop you’re talking about. It’s one thing if your dream is to put together a ...

A team of Canadian engineers has taken out one of the world's top design prizes with a 3D printer that prints out customised circuit boards with the press of a button. Claire Reilly was a video host, ...

Building circuit boards is fun but difficult. While you could do it at home with a some etchant and some clear plastic, Voltera hopes to make the entire process much easier with their V-One circuit ...

A team of Canadian students has scooped this year’s James Dyson Award for its design of a small portable machine, which prints circuit boards. Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) are ubiquitous in ...

You can add another crazy characteristic to graphene's ever-expanding list of "wonder material" properties: It can now be used to create flexible, transparent thin-film transistors... using an inkjet ...

3D printing is great if you need to create something made of plastic or even metal or ceramic out of thin air. But what if you want something fuzzier and warmer? Something, like say, a hand-knit scarf ...
