(Nanowerk News) Pressure sensors are important tools for accurate sensing of applied forces. However, they can mostly sense forces along only a single direction. In a new study, scientists from South ...

3D printing is an additive manufacturing process that turns a digital model file into a physical object. A 3D printed object is created by layering materials sequentially using additive processes ...

Purdue University researchers have developed a method to embed electrically-conductive particles, or sensors, in 3D printed filament polymers and disperse them evenly. The patent-pending wet-mixing ...
