Here is a rundown of some amazing 3D printed items from World Maker Faire in New York.  This year we saw an diverse array of 3D prints – from complex humanoid robots to wearable designs.

3D Printed Robots

Adventure Ball

The Adventure Ball by Michael Curry, also known on Thingiverse as “Skimbal”, is a 3D printed robotic pet that transforms from a ball to a four legged robot.

InMoov Humanoid Robot

InMoov is an Open Source 3D printable animatronic robot. It was designed by Gael Langevin, but this particular build by Chuck Fletcher integrated eye tracking, Kinect and Leap Motion control. The video shows the InMoov using eyetracking to follow the movements of a piece of paper.

This cute walking robot was developed by Kevin Biagini of Let’s Make Robots. Check out his Instructable on how to make your own.

Jimmy the Robot

Jimmy the Robot made his debut at the Make: Hardware Innovation Workshop during a talk by Intel’s Futurist Brian David Johnson. In his current form he is the 3D printed exoskeleton that will contain a 21st Century robot that is easy to build, completely open source, and filled with humanity. Designed by Wayne Losey of Modibot, Jimmy has been printed both on a MakerBot Replicator 2 and in laser sintered nylon via Shapeways.
