- Morphing pasta as new metamaterialResearchers at Carnegie Mellon University (USA) developed flat-packed pasta that morphs into shape when cooked. Pasta comes in many shapes and sizes, each having…
- 4D printed thermoplastic objects morph when heatedResearchers from Carnegie Mellon University's Morphing Matters Lab created a series of 4D printed objects made from thermoplastic, printed with a common 3D printer,…
- Say it with artificial blooming flowers from morphing materialHave you ever been in a restaurant and felt at the plant on the table to see if it was real or made from…
- 3D printed flat wooden object can morph into shapeResearchers at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem developed a method to 3D print flat wooden object that can self-morph into complex 3D shapes. Traditionally,…
- Super Morphing Tire DesignA new tire concept called Maxplo by Kumho could eliminate the need to change your tires seasonally as Maxplo is designed to alter its shape…
- 4D printed object morphs when heat is addedIn 4D printing, one more dimension is added: time. After an object is 3D printed, it changes its shape in one way or another.…
- Shape-Shifting Materials Open New Doors for DesignersResearchers at McGill University have unveiled a new development in shape-shifting materials inspired by kirigami—the Japanese art of paper cutting. This innovation has the…
- Lenticular sheetsLenticular sheets contain images that appear to move or otherwise change, depending on the viewing angle. Each of these sheets consists of a certain amount of lenses, which give the image on the sheet a certain effect. There are various kinds available, like flip-flop, in which the image changes completely, 3D effect, animation, zooming or morphing.
- Untethered stretchable electronic bandagesResearchers of Morphing Matter Lab and Soft Machines Lab at Carnegie Mellon University developed a new type of wearable electronic bandages with a spandex…
- KromataforThis dynamic Kromatafor tanning process produces a color-shifting leather. Triggered through temperature change, the intense surface hues morph and crossfade when exposed to either direct or indirect temperature variation. This is not a surface-only prismatic laminate or "painted on" process. Kromatafor® is tanned directly into the hide allowing a wide range of possible product applications.
- Magic MotionMagic Motion is a printing technology on synthetic materials, distinguishing itself from older 3D-techniques by the possibility to create moving images. This is done by using lenticulare technology: a combination of computer graphics and printing on lens-shaped synthetic films.
- Material highlights at Dutch Design Week 2018 part 3Dutch Design Week takes place this year from 20 to 28 October. As always, the event focuses on designs of the future. Especially for…
- Inflatable silicone material is made using liquid printingResearchers from BMW and MIT’s Self-Assembly Lab collaborated to design the first 3D printed inflatable material made from silicone, using liquid printing. The material…
- 3D printing polymer adaptable even after object is printed3D printing has given designers a lot of freedom to create objects by their own design that suit their purpose exactly. However, once an…
- Ancient Greek inspired patterned 3D tiles3D printing is by now almost as common as 2D printing, with 3D printers being affordable enough that people can have one at home.…
- Transformative Paper by Florian HundtThe anisotropic material properties of moisture expansion in industrially produced paper and natural wood are similar and mostly tried to be avoided. Combined with…
