Advances in alternative energy technology over the last four decades have made it both easier and cheaper to live off-grid. This series provides a personal perspective on the pluses and minuses of living with technology in the forests of Northern California. After a short hiatus, The Wired Woods is back. Parts one and two. I […]]]> https://techcitement.com/hardware/draw-your-own-electrical-circuits-with-a-silver-pen/ Thu, 30 Jun 2011 14:07:06 +0000 http://techcitement.com/?p=893

Two researchers at the University of Illinois have developed a silver-inked rollerball pen that allows the user to draw conductive pathways on any typical writing surface.  The pen looks and feels like any regular ink pen, but the solution of real silver nano-particles it contains retains its electrical conductivity even through multiple bends or folds […]]]>
