Nanoscribe builds world’s fastest microscopic 3D printer

World’s fastest 3D printer of micro- and nanostructures was revealed during recently held international fair for photonics, Photonics West. Capable of manufacturing three-dimensional objects at micro-scale, it retains maximum resolution and consumes minimum time. This

3D printers – from innovation to copyright infringement

3D printers have been around for a while now, although not many people own them. Not to be confused with Lenticular printing (which creates illusion of depth), 3D printing is a sequential process of creating three-dimensional solid objects of virtually any shape

Quantum stealth: “The Harry Potter cloak” realized

Canadian camouflage manufacturing company Hyperstealth Biotechnology Corp. has developed “quantum stealth camouflage”, material which renders the target completely invisible using light bending technology. What’s interesting, is that this material does not need any

Nanotech self-filling water bottle inspired by a beetle

A water bottle which will fill itself by drawing water from atmosphere is what NBD Nano co-founder and biochemist Deckard Sorensen conceived in his mind. He got inspired by Namib desert beetle(genus Stenocara), which does something similar. Living in a desert where
