World's largest delta 3D printer could build entire houses
out of mud or clay:

"Building houses quickly and on a very tight budget through additive
manufacturing, be it on Earth on another planet entirely, is a very
interesting proposition for more than one good reason. In space, this
would afford us huge amounts of design flexibility, giving way to
unusual but highly functional structures that simply couldn't be
assembled any other way.

Back on our own planet, 3D-printed houses may be about to become
more and more commonplace as the United Nations predicts there will
be a need for almost a hundred thousand new homes daily, worldwide,
for the next 15 years."

3D-printed guide helps regrow complex nerves after injury:

"A national team of researchers has developed a first-of-its-kind,
3D-printed guide that helps regrow both the sensory and motor functions
of complex nerves after injury. The groundbreaking research has the
potential to help more than 200,000 people annually who experience
nerve injuries or disease."

MIT boosts 3D imaging resolution 1,000-fold which
will help 3D printing and driverless cars:

"MIT researchers have shown that by exploiting the polarization of light
— the physical phenomenon behind polarized sunglasses and most 3-D
movie systems — they can increase the resolution of conventional 3-D
imaging devices as much as 1,000 times.

The technique could lead to high-quality 3-D cameras built into
cellphones, and perhaps to the ability to snap a photo of an object and
then use a 3-D printer to produce a replica."
