The latest 3D printer from Stratasys can build photorealistic prototypes in full color and using multiple materials in a single print process. It's the first of the company's Polyjet printers that can print in five colors – cyan, magenta, yellow, black and white.
-
Over the past few years, 3D printers have become more versatile and accessible to the average consumer. The OLO takes portability to the next level, given that millions already own half of the required hardware. It's designed to let users create 3D prints by using the light from a smartphone screen.

In a crowded field, the Ultimaker 2 Extended is one of the highest resolution desktop 3D printers available. It's larger footprint means it can also print larger, more complex projects than many of its brethren. Gizmag tried out this jumbo making machine to size up what it can do.
-
Startup Addibots is looking to help cut the man hours required to maintain our cities, wheeling out a roving 3D printing robot it imagines will scoot around town mending dodgy road surfaces.
-
The prospects for 3D printing may have just become a little bit stronger, literally, thanks to a new way of using metallic powders to create structures. A Northwestern University team has shown a new technique using liquid inks and common furnaces rather than more expensive lasers or electron beams.
