Artist's Retro-Futuristic Sculptures Are Made From Reclaimed Everyday Objects. Using donated objects, this sculptor is creating imaginative characters that seem to come right out of a science ...

Researchers have made a breakthrough in controlling the motion of multiple objects on a vibrating plate with a single acoustic source. By playing carefully constructed melodies, the scientists can ...

And that’s the reason this 3D printed coaxial lighting setup was built — to make quality photographs of small objects a snap. The objects of [Peter Lin]’s photographic desire are coins, no ...

But a device built by a team in Spain and the U.K. can levitate and manipulate small objects in air, and possibly in water and human tissue, using high-frequency sound waves.

Basic lab equipment can produce minuscule 3D-printed objects Making miniscule objects is hard – far easier to make bigger things and then shrink them. That’s the idea behind a 3D printing ...

Unfortunately, traditional glassmaking can be costly and slow, and 3D-printed small glass objects have rough surfaces, making them unsuitable for lenses. To solve those problems, ...
