This project focuses on fabricating a Luneberg lens using 3D printing to meet specific antenna requirements from Northrop Grumman. A Luneberg lens is a spherical device that focuses incoming electromagnetic waves from any direction to a single point, making it useful in radar and communication systems. Our design uses plus-shaped unit cells with varying density to create a gradual change in dielectric properties. The lens is printed in two halves and glued together, providing a practical solution for producing complex gradient structures with a single material.
