Drones are a pain, especially mini ones. When you are designing, building (or even reviewing) them, they inevitably fly off in some random direction, inevitably towards your long-suffering dog, hit ...

When a tall building needs to be renovated or repaired, cranes and scaffolding are the typical solution — but one group of researchers wonders whether this problem couldn’t be solved in a more ...

An international team of engineers have taken 3D printing to a whole new level by designing a fleet of drones that can build structures while in flight, unlocking new approaches to construction in ...

In a groundbreaking fusion of technology and environmental consciousness, researchers and innovators have in developing a revolutionary system of drones capable of 3D printing structures while in ...

Drones working together can create large 3D-printed structures made of foam or cement. The experiments are paving the way for a future where swarms of drones could help construct extremely tall or ...

The new technique, inspired by nature, involves multiple drones working together to build from a single blueprint. A mini-swarm’s worth of drones have been trained to work together to 3D-print some ...

The Army plans to test 3D-printed drones next month during an exercise in Poland to see if the service can mass produce its own small unmanned aerial systems at a much lower cost than the defense ...

“This is bigger than simply printing parts. We are reshaping the sUAS enterprise at the tactical level,” stated Colonel Travis McIntosh of the 101st Airborne Division. Those are his own words that ...

3D printing typically involves a single machine creating an object. But a team of undergraduate researchers has taken that paradigm far outside its box in the Design, Research, and Education for ...
