Xerox Develops Silver Ink for Wearable or Throwaway Electronics

Xerox researchers have invented a kind of ink that can conduct electricity and be used to put electronic circuits on top of plastics, film, and textiles. That means in the coming years we’ll be able to wear or bend our electronics. You could even print out your electronic gadget on plastic sheets, as if you were printing a document.

wrong news section - this belongs to the Computing News, not General News

btw elegant, maybe i'm jumping to conclusions here, but you might try to be more selective when posting news, ie. post just those that are important/interesting, otherwise we'll have a flood of news of questionable importance or interest to our members

I wonder how one could wear his/her electronic gadget??

The ink must have some molecular variation b/c electrons are the elements in which electricity is conducted through.

That's definitly different.

afaik its just a matter of size/weight/material characteristics that need to be compatible or close enough to be combinable & conductive ofc
