New CU Boulder research advances multiple material 3D printing - using functions and code to map different materials in a 3D object.

Color gradient filament is fun stuff to play with. It lets you make 3D prints that slowly fade from one color to another along the Z-axis. [David Gozzard] wanted to do some printing with this effect, ...

Researchers have developed a generative CAD system specifically for 3D printing. Generative CAD tools have been around for several years, and they are fun to use. They’re quite different from normal ...

A new open-source software tool is changing the way engineers design and print complex 3D objects. Developed at the University of Colorado Boulder, the program—called OpenVCAD—lets users easily design ...
