波音is to sponsor a competition to develop a jet pack, with a $2 million prize. The “Go Fly Prize”. The Prize’s originator, Gwen Lighter named 3D printing as one of the manufacturing processes which may be used in combination with autonomous vehicles to produce a working jet pack.

Contractile tissue, conductive microfibers, miniature kidneys and printed retinas

方面生物系统, notable for its bioprinting technologies, is collaborating with cellular testing company InSCREENeX and the Fraunhofer institute for Toxicology and Experimental Medicine (ITEM) to expand Aspect’s applications for printed contractile cell tissue. The Canadian company’s current Lab-on-a Printer used coaxial flow focusing to generate a cell-laden biological fiber within the cartridge and print it as a 3D structure, resulting inAspect’s Bioring platform, which mimics actual human muscle tissue. Using InScreenX’s cell systems and Fraunhofer ITEM’s toxicology testing, Aspect’s bioprinting platform will be integral to the development of new medicines.
