Scientists create a synthetic soft surface with human tongue-like textures using 3D printing 

Scientists claim to have created the first ever synthetic tongue using 3D printing.  The ‘biometric tongue’, developed in the UK, mimics the elasticity, wettability and unique rough texture of a real human tongue with its synthetic silicone structure.  Experts took digital scans of real human tongues to 3D-print their artificial material, which could be used … Read more
