A 3D-printed robotic hand which can play simple musical phrases on the piano by just moving its wrist has been developed by scientists.The robot can pick out simple tunes a note at a time but is no virtuoso.But the development could one day pave the way for more dextrous limbs which could perform surgery or handle delicate objects.It demonstrates just how challenging it is to replicate all the abilities of a human hand, and how much complex movement can still be achieved through design.The hand plays the musical phrases by just moving its wrist. It was made by 3D printing soft and rigid materials together to replicate of all the bones and ligaments in a human hand, but not the muscles or tendons. The researchers from Cambridge University on the UK, found that a surprisingly wide range of movement was still possible by relying on the hand's mechanical design.

Scientists create sculptures from water

Picture MUST credit: University of Liège
Scientists have found a way to make sculptures — from water.
They used 3D prints of closely spaced spines that used water tension to create programmed liquid reliefs.
As well as being decorative they have a practical use with the method used , capable of guiding particles under the action of gravity alone.
This is said to be a promising advance for microscopic transport and sorting, as well as marine pollution control.
Water may have what appears to be a flat surface when in a glass but there is a small - barely visible - curvature that forms near the edge of the glass.
This curvature is called a meniscus.
And this meniscus is due to a force acting on a millimetre scale and resulting from the surface tension of the liquid.
By creating lots of little menisci over a large surface the researchers were able to form slopes, valleys and even a model of the Eiffel Tower, all from water,
The scientists from Belgium’s University of Liège working in collaboration with the USA’s Brown University developed the technique.
OPS: Diagram (top) of the technique of using 3D printed spines to create water meniscus whuch can then be used to create acultures. Below, a close up ohoto of the technique with the meniscus highlighted..

Une batterie, imprimée en 3D, alimentée par une pile à combustible dite microbienne
Pictures must credit: Empa A 3D printed living battery made from fungus, needs feeding instead of charging. And the complete biodegradable unit could one day supply power to sensors for agriculture or research in remote regions. Once its work is done, it digests itself from the inside. Strictly speaking, the cell is not a battery, but a so-called microbial fuel cell. Like all living things, microorganisms convert nutrients into energy. Microbial fuel cells make use of this metabolism and capture part of the energy as electricity. Until now, they have mostly been powered by bacteria. Two types of fungus were combined to create a functioning fuel cell. There is a yeast fungus whose metabolism releases electrons complemented by a white rot fungus, which produces a special enzyme, allowing the electrons to be captured and conducted out of the cell. The fungi are not "planted" into the battery but are an integral part of the cell from the outset. The components are manufactured using 3D printing. Picture supplied by JLPPA

The image was run back through another AI design programme called Vizcom to produce a 3D computer model. After that model was created, generative AI was used to apply the patterns to the model, to give it some character.The shoes are custom-3D-printed for each order.

Des chaussures designées par une IA et produites par une imprimante 3D
Picture MUST credit: Syntilay The world's first entirely AI-designed and 3D-printed shoes has hit the market.Buyers use a smartphone to scan their feet to get their exact size and send it to the US company behind the footwear to ensure the perfect fit.The shoes, by Florida-based Syntilay, are ready three weeks later.They look like a sneaker-inspired slider sandal.If for some reason customers are unable to scan their feet will be made to their reference shoe size.The company used an AI programme called Midjourney to create the basic shape of the shoe, after which an artist drew a sketch based on the creation. The image was run back through another AI design programme called Vizcom to produce a 3D computer model. After that model was created, generative AI was used to apply the patterns to the model, to give it some character.The shoes are custom-3D-printed for each order. The shoes , for men and women, are available in a range of colours and cost just under $150 USD / €146 euros a pair. Picture supplied by JLPPA

Des scientifiques chinois ont dévoilé une brique innovante qui pourrait être utilisée pour construire la première base humaine au monde sur la Lune
Picture MUST credit: CCTV Chinese scientists have unveiled an innovative brick that could be used to build the world’s first human base on the Moon. The prototype is made from a simulation of the soil, known as regolith, found on the lunar surface. The idea is that the real bricks would be made of regolith collected by astronauts and 3D printed into bricks . As such, it is known as a Moon soil brick and is designed to withstand both physical pressure and high levels of radiation from the sun. It was developed by a team at the National Digital Construction Technology Innovation Center of Huazhong University of Science and Technology in Wuhan. The bricks have an interlocking structure to make them easier to assemble. The bricks will be tested aboard China’s own Tiangong space station later this year for testing as part of a three year experiment. Picture supplied by JLPPA

Chocolate growers will soon be living in a village made from recycled cacao husks.The cacao beans are used to produce chocolate.But now there is a plan to use the waste material for a 3D printed community for the farmers who grow the crop.Simply called Cacao Eco Village , it will be located on the coast of Ecuador's Manabi province where cacao farmers live and work to produce chocolate through extracting cocoa butter and solids from the cacao beans.It has been design by Australia and US-based architecture company Valentino Gareri Atelier .It has been created for Ecuadorian chocolate manufacturer Muze, as well as non-profit organisation Avanti, with construction scheduled to begin this year.The village will feature various site figurations of three different-shaped modules, all of which will be 3D-printed using cacao shell waste biofilaments leftover from chocolate production.Geometric in form, the modules will also include a range of other local materials in their architecture, such as bamboo and wood.According to Valentino Gareri, the modules will create a self-sufficient village.
OPS: Render of the Cacao Eco Village . Work is due to begin on it later this year
