3D Printing Devices with Embedded Sensing

Researchers from MIT have developed a method to integrate sensing capabilities into 3D printable structures comprised of repetitive cells, which enables designers to rapidly prototype interactive input devices.

One minute mentor: Sinter Hardening

The term sinter hardening refers to a process in which the cooling rate experienced in the cooling zone of the sintering furnace is fast enough to transform a significant portion of the material matrix into martensite. The sinter hardening route has become increasingly popular due to its cost effectiveness.
