Developed by a research team of graduate students and an assistant Jeng Ywam-Jeng, the 3D Printer comes with a photopolymer which utilizes light coming from a smartphone. A coated vat of resin is placed over the smartphone and the light emitted from the device cures resin over the metal print-bed. By curing each layer, the z-axis lifts up until the completion of print. Resin is the key to this technology which is well introduced by the Tech team. It can be hardened with a different light, except a laser or UV rays.

Researchers Create Smartphone 3D Printer in Taiwan

The team of researchers is working to deal with the problems related to printing and they are adhering to print vat which is seen as a disposable component. A computer is used to control the motor. This time, only one app is used to sync the screen through the motor. It has its printing software and it works as a Bluetooth device.
