Also a design win is that 3D prints are used where needed and not where other parts are superior. Far to often we see 100% 3D printed robots for convinence even if its more cost efficient and ...

A new 3D-printed robot called Poppy is helping a team of French researchers study bipedal walking and human-robot interaction. They were able to design, fabricate, and assemble a relatively large ...

[Related: Watch a robot hand only use its ‘skin’ to feel and grab objects.] Traditional 3D-printers use fast-curing polyacrylate plastics. In this process, UV lamps quickly harden a malleable ...

MIT’s CSAIL has created a method for 3D printing hydraulically-powered robot parts that require no assembly and need minimal power.
