Graphene 3D Printers To Be Commercialized in About 3 Years

[Brian_Krassenstein]

South Korea's KERI Nano Hybrid Technology Research Center is optimistic about the potential for commercializing graphene as a 3D printing material. KERI (Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute) senior researcher Seol Seung-kwon noted that nano printing technology will drive development. Applying that technology to pure graphene can potentially lead to huge new possibilities, such as flexible electronics. KERI has applied for a patent for their technology and estimates that they may be able to commercialize it in just three years.

How will readily available graphene 3D printing change the world as we know it? Let's hear your thoughts. Below is an image of the graphene 3D printing printing process that KERI has been using:

They still have quite a bit of work ahead of them but this is pretty amazing. Endless potential once they start to refine the process, to the point it actually starts to scare me a little. Could this be the start of programmable nanobots?
