Flat glass is boring. All the fanciest Android phones sport curved glass displays. Not to be left out of the display-warping ways, Apple has patented its own glass-bending process. Apple's patent ...

Ordinarily, if a window goes around the corner of a building, it's made of two flat panes of glass that are joined together by a metal rail or glue. Now, though, German scientists have developed a ...

A new technique makes it possible to bend sheet glass into complex or unconventional shapes with the help of laser beams. This opens up a whole new range of potential products for architects and ...

At times a shimmering gray, at times more of a greenish color, the glass facades of high-rise buildings are mostly fairly similar in appearance. They become unique when individual glass elements are ...

A new laser-based production technique developed at the Fraunhofer Institute for Mechanics of Materials (IWM), Freiburg, Germany, makes it possible to bend sheet glass into complex or unconventional ...

The ability to bend sheets of glass into angular corners without damaging the sheet or impairing the optical properties is attractive in architecture, industrial design and medical technology.

Schott's Ultra-Thin Glass is thinner than a human hair, and you can watch us bend it in this CNET video. When his parents denied him a Super NES, he got mad. When they traded a prize Sega Genesis for ...

Computer scientists develop a design tool that opens up the use of a cost-efficient technology for curved glass panels. The tool is based on a deep neural network and allows for the free-form design ...
