These patented prenatal headphone adapters allow mothers to enjoy music with their babies. Medical grade silicone dampens the sound to safe levels to protect the baby's hearing while plastic clips attach easily to the waistband. Access to the think[box] PolyJet 3D Printing Services accelerated Mbrio's design for manufacturing, producing more prototypes in less time and for less money.

Andrew Mancuso, preservation officer at Kelvin Smith Library, used a process called photogrammetry to create 3D models of historical Cleveland graffiti near Doan Brook. He brought the models to think[box] to 3D print the models out for a hands-on element to include in his research presentation.

Alex Blake designed and built this custom longboard from scratch. He modeled the boards with SolidWorks before machining the mold with the shopbot to achieve curved surfaces.  Laminated bamboo and fiberglass was pressed the deck into the molds to achieve a smooth organic shape. Grip tape cut into custom shapes on the laser cutter finished the deck.

Intubot is a novel robotic intubation device that deploys an endotracheal tube between a patient’s vocal cords to protect and ventilate the lungs during a respiratory failure or distress. Intubation is one of the most common procedures performed worldwide in emergency departments but requires a high level of skill. Doctors will also experience difficulties during the procedure such as short necks, arthritic spines, etc. These issues motivated Ph.D. student Xiangyi Cheng to design a device that facilitated the procedure. The automation of this complicated procedure signifies another step towards improving medical practices by obtaining higher accuracy and efficiency.
