In addition to the stylish bikini shown above, the material could also be used for men bathing suits, swimming caps or full-body wetsuits.
And, once the material has been used sufficiently, the pads can simply be replaced with fresh ones to continue its water-cleaning mission without requiring the wearer to buy a brand new suit.

But a team of engineers from the University of California Riverside are trying to help clean up the mess with an amazing 3d printed concept called the Spongesuit bikini,
and thus the Spongesuit bikini was created by housing the pongematerial within a 3d printed swimsuit. The 3d printed elastomer body of the Spongesuit bikini has a unique, spiderweb-like design,

#Helmet with built-in suspension: Motorcycle headgear absorbs energy from a crash to protect your brain as well as your skull Experts have created a helmet with built-in suspension to protect your brain as well as your skull.
While most ordinary motorcycle and cycle helmets attempt to protect the skull from damage, the brain is still susceptible to injuries from impacts.
The 6d helmet contains a foam liner inside which is split into two layers, separated by an array of energy absorbing elastomeric isolation dampers
-which look tiny rubber suction cups-creating an air gap. It is designed to compress and'shear'omnidirectionally.
The helmet also slows the rotation of the head down on impact, which can cause the brain to spin inside the skull and lead to brain injuries.
Bob Weber, cofounder of 6d helmets, said the combination of the suspension system along with an EPS foam to absorb energy helps to make the helmet safer.
He said:''By having a suspension in the helmet, the helmet is active at a much lower energy demand than a traditional design.'
'The two liners can compress within themselves and if the energy is high enough the two layers come together
and the EPS takes over.''While traditional helmets are simply too stiff to effectively absorb energy from impacts at lower impact velocities,
the 6d helmet's Omnidirectional Suspension (ODS) will compress and shear omni-directionally when subjected to impact.
This means it could be used to improve safety for motorcyclists and traditional cyclists. An array of 27 dampers work in unison to isolate impact energy from the brain.
