3D Printed Autonomous RoBoats Aim to Reduce Road Traffic in Amsterdam
Reading Time: 3 minutesResearchers from MIT CSAIL and the Amsterdam Institute for Advanced Metropolitan Solutions are working on a project called the RoBoat, an autonomous boat system that can be used as water taxis, or even be joined together to create floating structures and bridges. Imagine being able to start your morning off by hopping on…

MIT and BMW Develop “Liquid Printed Pneumatics” for Inflatable Car Interiors
Reading Time: 3 minutesBMW and MIT’s Self-Assembly Lab have collaborated to develop “liquid printed pneumatics”, the first reported 3D printed inflatable material that can morph from one state to another and expand into any shape or function. Just around two years ago, the BMW Design Department and MIT’s Self-Assembly Laboratory began a cross-disciplinary study with the mutual…

3D Printed AlterEgo Wearable Responds to Silent Speech
Reading Time: 3 minutesStudents from MIT have created a prototype 3D printed device, AlterEgo, that can recognize the words you mouth when silently talking to yourself and interpret them as commands. Step aside Alexa, you’ve got some company. A computer interface devised by researchers at MIT can transcribe words that the user verbalizes internally but…

MIT and Boeing Collaborate on Additive Manufacturing Education
Reading Time: 2 minutesWith the expiration of key patents, availability of advanced digital modeling software, and improved hardware, additive manufacturing is on the verge of radically changing how products are designed, made and maintained. But a lack of understanding of its fundamental principles, applications, and business implications is proving to be a barrier to broader adoption.…

MIT Unveils inFORM, a Mind-Bending 3D Installation That Lets You Virtually Interact with Objects
Reading Time: < 1 minuteMIT researchers have unveiled inFORM, a mind-bending, shape-shifting 3D installation that allows users to virtually „interact with digital information by rendering it in three dimensions.“ The display itself is comprised of a grid of ‚pins,‘ or long square-topped rods, that can be quickly moved up and down to form 3D shapes.…
