Abstract Fabrication of ceramic objects by solid freeform fabrication (SFF) techniques is reviewed, with emphasis on ceramic versions of commercial rapid prototyping (RP) methods. A wide range of ceramics have been demonstrated, including aluminum oxide, silica, hydroxy-apatite, silicon nitride, and lead zirconate titanate, with techniques based on extrusion, ink jet deposition, green tape lamination, and photopolymerization. The quality of SFF ceramics compares well with conventionally processed ceramics. 32 Refs. (Auth abstract) XX
