Could this be the time we say goodbye to robotic awkwardness and hello to seamless motion? This article highlights the groundbreaking concept of whole-body control, a coordinated robotic motion technique that resembles natural movement. Imagine a robot smoothly navigating its environment, performing tasks with grace and precision. This innovative approach allows for improved efficiency and greater versatility in real-world settings.
In this episode, we talk about a novel approach to multi-material 3D printing that’ll enable the production of soft components capable of contracting in a similar fashion to muscles.
Inkjet printing is an extremely versatile, non-contact process that involves jetting tiny ink droplets to facilitate direct printing. It has seen a surge of new applications in fields including electronics, life science, optics, and PV.
Draft is a vital part of injection moulding design. If ignored you run the risk of poor cosmetic finish, warping and the chance that your part may not eject smoothly from the mould. This video talks about draft and how you can use it in your part design for a more mouldable part.
