Audi extends the use of 3D printers in production: Individually designed and locally printed, auxiliary tools from the 3D printer support the employees in the production lines. In the future, a separate department will take over implementation at the Neckarsulm site.
One new Russian tech company aims to provide a unique new service helps expecting mothers visualize their developing baby. After getting their tummies scanned with an ultrasound, mothers-to-be can now get that ultrasound data converted into a 3D picture of their as-yet-unborn child, which can then be printed into a full-scale 3D model. A company called Embryo 3D offers the unique service to expecting mothers at their offices in the Russian city of Ufa.
3D printing technology has expanded into the coffee business and a new latte art printer called the RippleMaker is the latest innovation to hit the market. Coffee lovers can finally drink their favourite hot beverage with a picture of anything they want, including art, famous celebrities, or even selfies printed on the foam. The Carrera Cafe in Los Angeles is one of the first coffee shops to begin offering this innovative new service.
Terrible tattoos may become a thing of the past thanks to a futuristic machine designed to 3d print tattoos under human skin. A French group of industrial designers calling themselves Appropriate Audiences created the world's first tattoo printing robot, dubbed Tatoue, to expand the artistic limits of tattooing by using a 3D-printer to create tattoos. All the user has to do is to upload their design and slide their hand in the machine. Would you ever consider getting inked up by a robot?
Two-year-old Agnia Shtak from the city of Armavir has found herself the envy of the playground after being fitted with a multi-function 3D-printed prosthetic hand developed by Moscow-based biomedical startup Motorica. Agnia, who suffers from a congenital hand deformity, demonstrated her wide range of skills while wearing the prosthesis at the Skolkovo Innovation Center in the Russian capital on Tuesday. "We've developed a very functional and very durable prosthesis, which can be put on children from two or three years of age," explained Motorika founder Ilya Chekh. He said this encourages a child "to learn how to use a functional prosthesis from the early years, and later at a more advanced level." Chekh also noted that children who wear the colourful prostheses often find they attract positive attention and interaction from other children. "When they see a kid with that kind of prosthesis, children get interested in it and want to see how it works. They even ask to try it sometimes," he explained. The company uses 3D-printing because they say it makes component parts more resilient and quicker to manufacture. Some models even have holders for special gadgets like video cameras and audio players. Motorika is a startup of the Skolkovo Foundation's Biomedical Cluster.
