Researchers from the University of Massachusetts in Lowell have developed a new programmable 3D printing material that can be used to manufacture several vital components for radar systems. They have developed a new “functional ink” that can be manually tuned to detect radio waves and generate the specific frequencies required for a functional radar system. The inks can be used to 3D print a material capable of controlling the flow of radio waves and specific frequencies, which is an essential electrical process needed for the type of tunable electronic devices used in military radar systems.
