– 3D-Modelle & 3D-Drucker –

At the dawn of rapid prototyping, a common predication was that 3D printing would transform manufacturing, spurring a consumer revolution that would put a printer in every home. That hasn’t quite happened—-and like so many emerging technologies, rapid prototyping has found its foothold in a surprisingly different field: Medicine.

The following studies and projects represent some of the most fascinating examples of „bioprinting,“ or using a computer-controlled machine to assemble biological matter using organic inks and super-tough thermoplastics.
