Printing in Fabric—Disney’s Research Division Takes 3D Printing to Another Level

Combining the appeal of custom-made products and the concept of integrative technology, allowing consumers to interact with what they’re wearing or what their using, Disney’s Research Program is invested in finding a new method of melding the two in a soft, yet viable form—and they’re using a 3D printer to get the job done.

Comfortably Numb—How College Freshmen are Making The Doctor’s Office and Easier Visit

3D printing has done it again, and this time it may even get me to willingly go to the doctors.
