In this exercise you will research a recent development in 3D printing unusual materials such as food, tissue, concrete, etc. and prepare a 2 minute in-class presentation about it.

Learn About 3D Printing Unusual Materials

Watch some videos to learn about 3D printing unusual materials.

Research

Pick a material to research. Find some interesting development related to that material, e.g., what's happening in 3D printed body parts these days? You can do a Google search, look on Reddit's r/3dprinting, or look at industry web sites like 3dprintingindustry.com.

Prepare

Write up your findings in a single slide and prepare a two-minute in-class presentation. Put your name on your slide. Provide some sort of graphic if possible. You can include a brief video clip if you have one. Your slide should include a link or citation where people can look for more details if they're interested.

Present

Hand in your slide as a PDF file inside a zip file in Autolab. Give your presentation in class.
