Jessie Atkin posted a new blog up on Digital Landing about a new revolutionary light source.
When it comes to electric lighting the talk is usually your average light bulb verses energy saving ones. Well General Electric has changed that conversation.
At GE’s research center in New York light is actually being printed. The technology of OLEDs that made this possible have been around (they’ve started showing up in cell phones and televisions) but this is the first machine to print the light as is. It basically seals a set of chemicals with a plastic film and foil, and thus, there is light.
Organic compounds combined with any electric current (yes, plugs are still involved) are the basic make up of this latest scientific development. Just imagine light posts without bulbs at the top but a complete glow from top to bottom. With the new OLED printable light the possibilities of form in the future are now almost indescribable.
