Satisfied with printed electronics so far?

摘要

Hollywood often tells us how much a movie cost to make so we'll be suitably impressed with the studios commitment to totally wow us. So I was amazed to learn that companies developing printed electronics are spending from a few hundred thousand to a few million dollars to make prototypes. These numbers come from research done by IDTechEx, producers of Printed Electronics events around the world. As we all know, risk-adverse packaging developers and engineers often need proof-of-concept on emerging technologies. But I was doing articles about packaging applications using printed electronics back in 2008.
