One can 3D print with conductive filament, and therefore plausibly create passive components like resistors. But what about active components, which typically require semiconductors? Researchers at ...

Researchers at MIT have unexpectedly stumbled upon a way to 3D print active electronics – meaning transistors and components for controlling electrical signals – without the use of semiconductors or ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Michael Molitch-Hou is an additive manufacturing analyst. This article is more than 3 years old. Semiconductor packaging examples ...

3D electronics is an emerging manufacturing approach that enables the integration of electronics within or on the surface of objects. While it has long been used for adding antennas and simple ...

Electronics such as Bluetooth speakers can be 3D-printed from a material that dissolves in water within hours. That allows designers to rapidly create prototypes, enables easier recycling of the ...
