NEW TO THE TECHNOLOGY?
What can printed electronics do for you?
Printed electronics products offer many new possibilities because they can be flexible, stretchable, low cost enough to be disposable, improve existing electronics such as displays, be integrated with fabrics, are more environmental, and improve safety and much more...
Across many industries, from toys to medical products, and cell phones to packaging, more information is needed on products and packaging and it needs to be easier to access. The user interface and product form factor are vital for brand enhancement - printed electronics can do all of this.
Dull posters and packaging have been brought to life with low cost moving displays and effects, while still retaining flexibility and thinness. For the first time, cheap electronic features enhance products such as packaging, blister packs, bill board posters and clothing. Over 3000 global organizations are developing the technology and now radical new products have emerged.
Why should you explore this further?
Printed electronics will revitalise industries such as publishing, as evidenced by two magazines that have already integrated displays in them - and sold out rapidly. It is enabling self medication through automated disposable skin patches. It is reducing the weight in vehicles by replacing conventional heavy wiring, displays and other components. Many new markets will be created.
Printed electronics has a surprisingly wide range of applications and is already giving huge benefits and competitive advantage.
