• Resumen

  • From aircraft to houses and even guns, just about anything can be 3D printed--as long as its not soft and squishy. Now the repertoire is about to get a lot more cuddly. The first 3D printer that can chum out soft objects made its debut last month at the Computer Human Interaction conference in Toronto Canada. It has already made small woollen teddy bears, and could one day be used to create electronics that are easy on the skin.
