  • Patent number: 10542624
    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed relating to 3D-printed structures. An example method of building a sensor with a 3D printer includes building a first conductive substrate and building a second conductive substrate. The example method also includes building a dielectric structure between the first conductive substrate and the second conductive substrate, the dielectric structure including a first latticed structure including a first plurality of legs extending inwardly at a first angle and a second latticed structure including a second plurality of legs extending inwardly at a second angle.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 2, 2019
    Date of Patent: January 21, 2020
    Assignee: Intel Corporation

  • Patent number: 10285267
    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed relating to 3D-printed structures. An example 3D-printed structure includes a first conductive substrate, a second conductive substrate and a dielectric structure between the first conductive substrate and the second conductive substrate, the dielectric structure including a latticed structure having a first stiffness in a first direction and a second stiffness in a second direction different than the first direction.

  • Publication number: 20170066196
    Abstract: A system configured to facilitate formation of additive manufacturing objects is described. The system may obtain a virtual three-dimensional representation of an object, determine positions for a layered series of contour lines for the object based on the three-dimensional representation; and determine individual wave functions that correspond to a given contour line for a given layer. An individual wave function may indicate a three or more dimensional waveform pathway for an additive manufacturing platform to follow within a given layer when forming the given layer of the object. The system may control movement of the additive manufacturing platform to additively manufacture the object following waveform pathways. Controlling movement of the additive manufacturing platform based on the wave functions facilitates additively manufacturing objects without a need for support material for overhanging features.
