MIT engineers are aiming to make construction more sustainable by developing reusable bricks made from 3D-printed recycled ...
Using a custom 3D glass printing technology provided by MIT spinoff Evenline, the team has made strong, multilayered glass bricks, each in the shape of a figure eight, that are designed to interlock, ...
It’s designed to plug onto a LEGO platform that has an internal ... [James] has taken care building this — the brick was built with help of a tiny 3D-printed form, and then, further given ...
Using a 3D printer that works with molten glass, researchers forged LEGO-like glass bricks with a strength comparable to concrete. The bricks could have a role in circular construction in which ...
Inspired by the sustainable possibilities of circular construction, MIT engineers are creating a new type of reconfigurable ...
As DesignBoom notes, each 3D-printed brick was specifically customized to fit over the e-bike’s frame and wiring to conceal anything that did not support the overall LEGO look.
Using a custom 3D glass printing technology provided by MIT ... that are designed to interlock, much like LEGO bricks. In mechanical testing, a single glass brick withstood pressures similar ...
The engineers used a custom 3D glass printing technology developed by Evenline, an MIT spinoff, to develop strong multilayered glass bricks in the shape of a figure of eight. They're designed to ...
[Related: LEGO built a full-scale, drivable McLaren P1 model.] As DesignBoom notes, each 3D-printed brick was specifically customized to fit over the e-bike’s frame and wiring to conceal ...
The engineers chose to design the bricks in a figure-8 shape, so they could be used to build curved walls. The glass blocks are printed using Evenline’s custom 3D glass printing technology.
