PAPER APPS


Posters of any bands were posted anywhere and if people don't know or not familiar with that band, they will just ignore it. But what if that printed poster posted on a wall or anywhere can play and you can listen a music? Will still ignore it?

Isn't it interesting that you can play a music by just printing it on a plain paper? That's what they call "Printed electronics". Well, if you think there's something special on the paper, then you're absolutely wrong. For it's the ink being used is the one which is having a special something. They called it as a "conductive ink".

unlike with the other ink from Lexmark, HP, Canon, Fujitsu, Brother or to any printer company, conductive inks is more special. Its capability is to print something and it will created an electrical circuit which will allow people to play music out of an ordenary paper. Not just playing music but you can also book your tickets using it.

Who is responsible of this very interesting Paper Apps technology? It's the brand communications agency called "Uniform" which is basing in Liverpool, UK. It was founded by Pete Thomas.

According to Thomas, this Paper Apps are devices that enable the users to interact with data, information and services, but they're made from paper and conductive inks.
