A 285-Micrometer Indy Car Printed With Two-Photon Lithography


What's the point of 3-D printing an Indy car if it's not ultra-fast? Using a high-resolution 3-D printing technology known as 'two-photon lithography' - a technique that is normally quite slow - researchers at the Vienna University of Technology have made a huge breakthrough in printing speed, setting a new high-speed record by printing orders of magnitude faster than was previously possible.
