Korean researchers 3D print highly efficient gamma radiation detectors

A team of researchers from Hanyang University, Seoul have 3D printed plastic scintillators capable of detecting gamma radiation in a highly efficient manner. The DLP printed parts were tested against a commercially available scintillator, BC408, and the team found that their creation showed a similar decay time and intrinsic detection efficiency. The researchers would now […]

University of Minnesota researchers use motion capture technology to 3D print sensors directly onto expanding organs 

Researchers from the University of Minnesota have devised a novel method of deploying Hollywood-esque motion capture technology to assist the 3D printing of sensors onto organs that expand and contract.  Printing directly onto moving soft tissues is challenging because sensors need to be able to adapt to the organ’s constantly changing parameters. The research team’s […]
