A new low-cost, 3D-printed robot has been designed to traverse harsh environments using nothing ...
As the technology evolves, wind turbines are beginning to come in all shapes and sizes. We’ve told you recently about the design of turbines as large as a football field for offshore wind farms, but ...
We feature a lot of off-grid power projects here at Hackaday, whether they’re a micropower harvester or something to power a whole house. Somewhere in the middle lies [esposcar90]’s 3D-printed ...
Researchers at Cranfield University have created WANDER-bot, a low-cost, 3D-printed robot that is powered by wind energy.
UMaine researchers aim to recycle wind turbine blades as 3D printing material A team of University of Maine researchers have secured a $75,000 grant to explore recycling wind blades as feedstock for ...
Here's my review of the new mCreate 3D printer and laser engraver from Makeblock! In this video I design and build a model ...
Wind is to power a robot on long-term missions, reminiscent of the "Strandbeesten". A turbine instead of a sail captures the ...
A triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) certainly sounds like the sort of thing you’d need to graduate from Starfleet Engineering to put together, but it actually operates on the same principle that’s at ...
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has announced an award of $2,849,000 to the Composites Manufacturing Simulation Center (CMSC) of Purdue University (West Lafayette ...
