Ever thought of a plain wall having the lighting system, the plugs, the buttons attached straight alongside to the wall? I mean that the buttons or the led or even the plug socket that is DRAWN on the wall and actually functions as a system?
Well, this technology is under serious consideration of many scientists and technologist. The use of this technology has been done in some labs for testing and have got the positive results.
What actually this technology is?
It is basically making a touch-sensitive circuit using electric paint. The electric paint is made by collecting all the cathode bars of the batteries and then making it in a liquid form by adding some acids and using it like a paint by painting some circuits as per the requirements.
The advantage of this is that the space required would be very less and we can make some designs, drawings just to have a better look on the wall and still use it as a circuit. The cost would seriously reduce to just 25% of the present. It is non-toxic, can be used to create capacitive touch and proximity sensors, can be used as a potentiometer or resistive circuit element.
Its drawback is that when under certain temperature if the electric paint painted on the wall gets mixed with water, it can create some serious damage. I think that this con is far more dangerous than any others and enough to counter the pros of this technology.
One day, the technology will surely develop and the television or the desktop could be drawn on the wall with the dimensions we desire and the LEDs mounted inside the paint will surely show the good effects. Who knows !
