Nervous System is headed to San Francisco to exhibit at O’Reilly’s Solid, a new conference focusing on innovation at the intersection of hardware…
2-color tree frog
We’ve created a new 2-color animal and it is available for download at Thingiverse – a tree frog! This is the fourth striped…
recent developments in 3d-printing flexible objects
Our Kinematics project is one approach to making flexible objects with 3d-printing. By interconnecting hundreds of rigid panels with hinges, we can create…
kinematics 3d-printed in gold
Here is the first ever kinematics piece 3d-printed in metal! This sample swatch was 3d-printed using direct metal laser sintering (DMLS) in 18k gold…
see what’s been printing with Nervous System
It’s always exciting for us to see the great variety of things our customers create using our online generative design apps. Here are…
thingiverse gets nervous
We have been sharing some of our designs as 3D-printable models on Thingiverse since 2011. During this time, we’ve loved watching people 3D-print…
kinematics…. chainmail?
Recently, we began work on a chainmail version of Kinematics….there are lots of structures we can simulate and compress for 3D-printing! What do…
