With more research and experimentation, Smaldone said, this type of foam and process could be used for high-impact absorption items such as motorcycle or football helmets, car bumpers or armor. He ...

Researchers 3D print customized foam. The work from UT Dallas advances insulation and shock absorption applications.

KAV is back with another 3D printed helmet, but this one has some massive improvements that make it much more attractive.

The geometry of the helmet was figured out using computer simulations, and then printed using 3D printing. The printed version used a material called a hyperelastic polymer, which can stretch ...

At Douglas County High School, football coach Eric Rice said there was a buzz about his program when Riddell reps came to Castle Rock to do 3D scans for the helmets with his players.
