University Of Minnesota Scientists Develop 3D Printing On Skin
One of the US researchers has developed a latest 3-D printer which draws specific patterns of electrically conductive material which affect directly on a person’s skin, by creating temporary, or tattoo-like electronic devices. In the June 6, researchers report Advanced Materials stated that unlike some other 3-D printers which are designed to layer material on the rigid, motionless objects, then the new system uses the computer vision for compensating a moving printing surface. The Michael McAlpine is an engineer at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, and their colleagues also used this motion-savvy 3-D printer to create some wearable LEDs. The printer fixed a premade LED light to the wearer’s skin, then drew a circuit around the bulb by using a polymer ink which is laced with the silver flakes and that allows the ink to conduct electric current. After waiting at least 15 minutes for the ink to dry, then the user can keep the LED lit by holding wireless power transmit...
