Laser-assisted machining (LAM) hard, brittle materials, such as semiconductors and ceramics, utilizes a laser to heat an area to soften it before it is machined. The rest of the work piece is not ...

“Laser-based methods can be made to be relatively fast and precise, compared to other bioprinting techniques. This is important for large-scale tissue fabrication, where speed is a key factor.

Some of the more commonly used methods of bioprinting include extrusion, laser, microvalves, inkjet and tissue fragment printing. Researchers predict that the final printer will be the ...

To test complex brain functions during neurosurgical procedures, surgeons must operate on awake, locally anesthetized ...

Both inkjet and laser printer technology can be used to build the 3D scaffolds that cells can be grown in and also place the cells in these structures simultaneously. Professor Derby explains how ...

A patent application has already been filed for the idea of a robotically assisted laser surgery system for the precise and ...

In a collaborative article, Gorka Orive, a researcher in the UPV/EHU's NanoBioCel group, explores the potential and ...

The best color laser printers are a great investment that can save you time and money compared to cartridge-based inkjet printers. Laser printers use toner, which lasts a long time, delivering a ...

When we first heard of [Ildar Rakhmatulin’s] plan to use OpenCV on a Raspberry Pi to detect mosquitos and then zap them with a 1 watt laser, we thought it was sort of humorous. However ...

But with so many options available, how do you choose? Inkjet, laser, LED - each technology has its own strengths and weaknesses. Do you need speed or quality? Are you printing mostly text or photos?
