Abstract

A closed-loop “adaptive” 3D-printing system and ambient-processable conductive inks are developed by Michael C. McAlpine and co-workers in article number 1707495 for the direct 3D printing of functional materials and devices onto arbitrarily moving freeform surfaces. The system tracks the motion of a target surface in real time and can perform adaptive printing of wireless electronics on human hands, and cell-laden inks on skin wounds of mice, leading to a paradigm shift in smart manufacturing technologies for directly printing wearable devices on the body and advanced medical treatments.
