Fused Deposition Modelling in Industry 4.0: Extend the capabilities of fused deposition modelling to industry 4.0 standard

The fourth Industrial Revolution stands for the current trends of automation and data exchange in manufacturing technologies - which comes with a considerable amount of opportunities as most manufacturers attempt to stay ahead of the competition. One of the possibilities is the addition of FDM printing - one of the types of additive...

The design of a user interface for a photonic tool

Diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) allows spectral tissue sensing through optical fibers at the tip of a needle, endoscope, or other medical device. A so-called photonic tool could be applicable in a variety of application areas to aid in diagnostic decisions or to support image-guided procedures. The use of light in combination with medical...
