Experimental Xerox Paper Erases Itself
Close your eyes and think for a moment a self-erasing documents! Xerox researchers have developed an experimental printing technology that could someday replace printed pages that are used for just a brief time.That would be a prints whose images last only a day, so that the paper can be used again and again. "The technology, which is still in a preliminary state, blurs the line between paper documents and digital displays and could ultimately lead to a significant reduction in paper use."
Trend Themes
1. Self-erasing Documents - Opportunity for developing innovative printing technology that creates prints with images that last only a day, reducing paper waste.
2. Blurring Paper and Digital - Opportunity to develop technology that bridges the gap between paper documents and digital displays, opening up new possibilities for document management.
3. Reducing Paper Waste - Opportunity to create solutions that significantly reduce paper use by developing alternative printing technologies.
