Biocompatible materials and structures with three-dimensional (3D) architectures establish an ideal platform for the integration of living cells and tissues, serving as desirable interfaces between biotic and abiotic systems. While conventional 3D bioscaffolds provide a mechanical support for biomatters, emerging developments of micro-, nano-, and mesoscale electronic and photonic devices offer new paradigms in analyzing and interrogating biosystems. In this review, we summarize recent advances in the development of 3D functional biointerfaces, with a particular focus on electrically and optically active materials, devices, and structures. We first give an overview of representative methods for manufacturing 3D biointegrated structures, such as chemical synthesis, microfabrication, mechanical assembly, and 3D printing. Subsequently, exemplary 3D nano-, micro-, and mesostructures based on various materials, including semiconductors, metals, and polymers are presented. Finally, we highlight the latest progress on versatile applications of such active 3D structures in the biomedical field, like cell culturing, biosignal sensing/modulation, and tissue regeneration. We believe future 3D micro-, nano-, and mesostructures that incorporate electrical and/or optical functionalities will not only profoundly advance the fundamental studies in biological sciences, but also create enormous opportunities for medical diagnostics and therapies.

“…The concept as such, that is, integration of smart systems in HPDC, can also be extended to the use of sensors for monitoring tasks and may gain additional interest in a smart manufacturing and/or Internet of Things context . Besides, it can also be transferred to Additive Manufacturing for metallic components, and much more easily to polymer‐based materials and structures, as is widely illustrated, for example, by structural health monitoring (SHM) approaches in the aerospace or wind energy industry…”

“…Hybridization will more and more be extended to the field of smart structures and material‐integrated intelligent systems, addressing markets beyond the already deeply investigated aerospace or wind energy plant structural health monitoring and using AM as well as other manufacturing processes like metal casting (see Figure f) as vehicle . A specific motivation for this latter point may be found in the trend toward autonomous driving.…”

The present text introduces a Special Section of Advanced Engineering Materials linked to the symposium Advanced Materials for Transport Applications organized by the authors within the framework of the EUROMAT 2017 conference. It introduces the contributions that make up this Special Section, and takes the fact that a majority of them is related to the broader topic of hybrid materials and structures as a motivation for a short overview of this exciting area of research.

“…With the recent rapid advances in additive manufacturing (Vaezi et al, 2013) and functional printing (Woo et al, 2014) technologies, novel types of sensor devices and parts with "smart" components can also be realized in a wide variety of materials (Lehmhus et al, 2016;Delamare et al, 2016;Leigh, 2016). The application of foil-based sensors on components is a well-established and common method (Lee et al, 2010); 3-D printing of mechanical components and the application of sensing structures on those components by inkjet or screen printing of functional materials offer a new approach for fast, simple and inexpensive fabrication of custom designs and prototypes (Espalin et al, 2014;Dumstorff and Lang, 2017).…”

Abstract.Integrating sensors into machine parts is a necessary step for the development of smart or intelligent components. Sensors integrated into materials such as concrete, fiber compounds, or metals are already used to measure strain, temperature, or corrosion. The integration is mostly done during fabrication, where the sensor is recast in the material during processing. However, approaches to integrate sensors into parts fabricated by additive manufacturing are still rarely found. Especially in the case of rapid prototyping, additive techniques are already substituting the machining of parts using classical technologies like cutting, drilling and milling. To characterize such 3-D-printed machine parts the direct integration of sensing elements is the next logical step. This can be done in multi-material printing by using insulating, magnetic, and conductive materials. In the case of single material printing, our idea is to integrate a sensing element during the printing process itself. As proofof-concept, we present the functionalization of 3-D-printed screws. Strain gauges screen-printed on a 6 µm thick foil are interposed into the 3-D part during microstereolithography printing. We measure the torsional strain in the screw head to calculate the prestressing force in screws made from different plastic materials. We also analyze the defect effect by comparing it to screws without integrated elements.
