The World’s First 3D-Printed Motorcycle Defeats the Whole Purpose of 3D Printing

by

Airbus Group subsidiary APWorks, has taken the wraps off its latest development, a 3D-printed electric motorbike which uses Schalmalloy, a custom aluminium alloy that is resistant to corrosion and nearly as strong as titanium. Dubbed the “Light Rider,” the motorcycle weighs just 35 kg – 30% lighter than most e-motorcycle, and it is powered by a 6 KW electric engine that allows it accelerate from 0 to 45km/h in three seconds. The battery is exchangeable and offers 60 km over the course of one charge.

By utilizing a “selective 3D laser printing system,” APWorks was able to mold melted minuscule aluminum alloy particles together to in turn create the web-like frame. The company is marketing the Light Rider as the world’s first 3D-printed motorcycle, and just 50 units will be produced. Pre-orders are available now, for a whopping €50,000 EUR each, which in reality doesn’t make any sense, because 3D printers are supposed to make production cost cheaper than the traditional. Anyhow, you can place your pre-order here with a €2,000 EUR deposit.

Google’s Modular ARA Phone Is An Incredible WIP

by

The Google ARA modular smartphone project, allowing users to swap out modules of the phone with new functions as desired, has been in works for a while now. We haven’t heard much from the project for some time, but it’s still very much active. Project Ara now has its own business unit within Google’s Advanced Technology and Projects (ATAP) group, and the group’s Head of Creative Blaise Bertrand confirmed Project Ara’s progress. The phone will be available in the last quarter of this year for developers, with a consumer release in 2017.

The prototype that was shown on stage at Google I/O developers conference was considerably thinner and sleeker than when it was first announced. It will support up to six modules, and has been dubbed the “world’s first UniPro network.” Partners and companies interested in the project include E Ink (possibly for tiny secondary displays), Toshiba, Gotenna, and Sony Pictures. Check out the video above to learn more about the Google Ara modular smartphone.
