3D printing food ? Even chocolate if you like
"3D printing with chocolate is the pursuit of a number of companies in the West, but this is the first time that I’m aware of an Indian company that has investigated 3D printing with edible materials. As India’s 3D printing industry starts to grow at a rapid pace, a group of students at Manipal Institute of Technology took it upon themselves to use chocolate as their 3D printing medium. And the result is: the ChocoBot."

PRODUCTS
The Thinnest of Thin Timepieces
"The Titanium EDGE is characterized by minimal aesthetics and high precision. Housing a wafer-thin jeweled analog quartz movement of just 1.1mm, it is one of the slimmest titanium watches in the world with an overall thickness of only 4mm! The ultra slim calibre floats between sapphire glass crystals, supported by a skeletal framework. The contoured matte case is machined from a single piece of titanium and features carbon fiber details for a sporty look that’s complimented by a sleek golf-patterned leather strap. Sorry righties! This is one’s just for lefties!"

Core77 Design Awards 2014: The Best Equipment Designs of the Year
"The honorees of the Equipment category in the 2014 Core77 Design Awards do a great job keeping us more aware of and resilient to the unknowns of living life. Their preventative properties allow us to independently manage ourselves and help others in need, depending on the function. Whether it's helping a person in need or staying safe on the job, the equipment we use on a daily basis can easily be the one tool that's keeping us—or the person/environment we're attending to—alive and thriving."
