Drexel University is starting to create 3D scans of fossils to better study the motion of giant dinosaurs through small-scale robotic models. Martin LaMonica is a senior writer covering green tech and ...

Using plaster to create 3D models of dinosaur skeletons might be a thing of the past. Researchers at Drexel University are now studying the use of three-dimensional printing to create models of ...

In April of this year, I headed out to a marl pit in Clayton, New Jersey to watch a team of Drexel University students and their teacher, Professor Kenneth Lacovara, dig for fossils. Marl, a lime-rich ...

One man. One RV. An eight-month deep-dive into 3D printing. 3D printing is one of the most-hyped and least-understood industries we investors have to consider. Sure, it's going to be big... but how ...

Dinosaur fossils can be a biological puzzle, but technology like CT scans and 3D printing is helping scientists make new discoveries. Kimberley Chapelle, a doctoral student at the University of the ...

Access to rare fossils is limited, potentially putting a go-slow on their study, while sharing them around increases the risk of damaging them. Researchers at Berlin's Charité Campus Mitte have ...

Researchers at Drexel University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania have been hard at work on a mission to create 3D-printed dinosaur robots. It may sound crazy, but 3D printing will allow the researchers ...

Alberta's Royal Tyrrell Museum has found another innovative use for 3D printing technology: bringing fragile dinosaur specimens to life to advance knowledge and create compelling exhibits. Amy ...

A team of Australian scientists are using a world-first approach combining three-dimensional (3D) printing and virtual reality (VR) to bring a dinosaur “back to life”. Palaeontologists at a site in ...
