The Shining 3D EinScan Handheld 3D Scanner SHINING 3D Develops Helmet For Brainwave Research. "Scanning brainwaves and neural activity is a standard part of neuro-bliological research. However, as with most areas of medical technology, the helmet had to fit the exact specifications of the patient. This is where the EinScan came in. The team used the scanner to get the exact model of the eventual patient by moving it around them in a 360° rotation. It then displayed and computed the scans of the head in real time, which were crucial for 3D modelling the helmet." Read all about it...

As picked by ALL3DP, the UP mini 2 is the best 3D printer for beginners thanks to some impressive high-end features. For starters, there’s touchscreen controls, a closed build room, and wifi connectivity. But even more attractive are safety-conscious features like power failure protection — so the print can resume after an abrupt stop — and built-in HEPA air filtration to maintain a healthy working environment. There’s also automatic nozzle height detection, and a separate, enclosed spool container to prevent the filament from spoiling from exposure to moisture in the air. Overall a very tidy package!!
