Abstract

Extrusion-based silicone manufacturing processes enable the fabrication of functionalized optics by controlling the material properties of each printed voxel. In this paper, potentials of functionalization as well as challenges in the manufacturing of highly transparent silicone via Freeform-Reversible-Embedding are presented.
