Sacriface: A Novel Support Structure for 3D Printing that Tolerates "Sagging"

Member: Tomoki Takahashi (Research Assistant), Yusuke Sakai, Lana Sinapayen


In this project, we are reconsidering the “failure” in 3D printing. We focus on the phenomenon that overhangs recover their original shape by repeating the same print path. During this recovery process, the dropped overhangs serve as support structures for the next layer.
