We've seen a growing number 3D printers that use additive manufacturing technology to form objects one layer at a time, usually from resin or ABS plastic. But Markus Kayser, an MA student at the Royal ...

Show RCA 2011: German designer Markus Kayser has built a 3D-printing machine that uses sunlight and sand to make glass objects in the desert. Called The Solar Sinter, the device uses a large Fresnel ...

3D Printers are becoming more and more accessible with DIY models available to help print and create your own objects. However, Markus Kayser has taken the 3D printer concept a little further and ...

A new 3-D printer can harness sun and sand to create beautiful glass sculptures and bowls. Its ability to channel solar power directly into molding the abundant sands of places such as Egypt and ...

Where would we be without the world's graduate art projects? In the case of Markus Kayser's Solar Sinter, we might never have seen the day when a solar-powered 3D printer would turn Saharan sand into ...

Imagine a contraption that could create actual three-dimensional objects just by sitting smack dab in the middle of the Sahara desert. 3D printing is already almost unfathomably futuristic (not to ...

A student named Markus Kayser created an awesome project for a MA Design Products project. I hope he graduates with honors simply for the coolness of this project. Kayser created a device that can ...

How can we solve the shortage of energy and substances that we will visit in the future? That's why we focused on the possibility of sand and sunlight overflowing in the Sahara "Solar Sinter ...

No matter if you've used one or not, you've got to admit that 3D printers are pretty darn awesome, especially the self-replicating ones that extrude molten plastic and the shoebox-sized versions that ...

*This has just got to be the aw3som3st fab in the world. Almost sort of actually functions in the real world, apparently. "Amongst the wonderful collection of work currently on show at the Royal ...
