Prototyping of wearable electronics components at the Research Centre of University of Zilina

Currently, there are various 3D printing technologies on the market and a wide range of printing materials available due to various individual user requirements. 3D printers have found application not only in traditional manufacturing and non-manufacturing industries, but also in academic research. At the Research Centre of the University of Žilina, we use 3D printing methods for rapid prototyping of our designs in several application areas. This applies in particular to the verification of partial designs in the creation of wearable electronics. In this paper, we present the capabilities we have gained by using the Fusion 360 modelling tool and 3D printers for the design and rapid prototyping of partial solutions in our research.
