Rolling robots 3D print a bridge, inching their way along as they lay it

by Sarah Arken

The Smarter Bridge is a project led by Mix3d, which makes robotic 3D printers that can sinter stainless steel structures and inch their way along the surfaces as they are completed.

The final product will be a 12m pedestrian bridge in Amsterdam’s red light district; the bridge will be studded with sensors that stream continuous telemetry about the load stresses and health of the structure. Read more at boingboing.net.

Insights on StarRC Standalone Netlist Reducer

Sponsored by Synopsys

With the ever-growing size of extracted netlists, parasitic optimization is key to achieve practical simulation run times. Key trade-off for any netlist reducer is accuracy vs netlist size. StarRC Standalone Netlist reducer provides the flexibility to optimize your netlist on a per net basis. The user has total control of trading accuracy of some nets versus netlist optimization - yet another feature from StarRC to provide flexibility to the designer.
