Future Technology That Will Help In The Manufacturing Of Products
Printed Optics is a new approach to creating custom optical elements for interactive devices using 3D printing. Printed Optics enable sensing, display, and illumination elements to be directly embedded in the body of an interactive device. Using these elements, unique display surfaces, novel illumination techniques, custom optical sensors, and robust embedded components can be digitally fabricated for rapid, high fidelity, customized interactive devices.Disney’s 3D Printed Optics Could Change the Way We View Light
While theme parks and animation come to mind when we think of Disney, it’s clear that the company is investing significant time, money and effort into cool new technologies as well. We’ve already seen Disney’s interactive food concept, and their cool touch interaction system. Now it looks like they’re trying to advance the world of 3D printing by creating digitally-printed optics.
Applying 3D printing techniques to optically clear plastics, Disney Research wants to create custom lenses and illumination devices which can be embedded directly into products.
Using the technique, they could make everything from special light-up eyes for a toy robot to unique illuminated displays for vehicles, to high-tech lighting fixtures and volumetric displays. The technique also could produce something called “light pipes” which could redirect light from one surface to another, similarly to fiber optics.
The video clip below features several other examples of how printed optics could be used:

3d bioprinting = Immortality = go to stars
...3D Bioprinting-Immortality... ((sugar cotton fibers produced by centrifuge machines are even finer...capillaries are between 2 tenth and 1 hundredth of a millimeter in diameter... Perhaps...could be used these machines adapted as "biocentrifuges" to make capillary micro-tubes with a biodegradable and binder yarn of sugar inside coated with endothelial cells?)).
...interstellar travel constant acceleration (immortals 2)... Cloning?...direct to the Future...3D Bioprinting... Your recorded Memory to the new body and...Immortality. For us is too soon for hook to the 1st Immortal Generation. Who knows...tucked in liquid nitrogen at 200 ºC below zero, not can feel the pass of Time. When after 500 years make open your eyes again and someone say... Hello!! ...you will believe that the Goodbye was just a moment ago... Where am I?...(applause, shouts, laughs...) in Biomedical Recovery Center. What day is today?... July 21 of 7,018; was selected, centuries ago, in a Planetary Convention the beginning of Bronze Age like true History start... If I was...oh Goddess...give me a mirror...are you sure?...yes...aarrghghgg... Do not worry, at once we print a new body to your size. Take, choose in your Catalog. Let me see...this to the "athletic" is right... Ok. And your Princess, how old are you?...those things do not ask to a woman. Come on, your new Life awaits you. Wow!...has broken me a leg to put it on the floor... Do not worry, we carry you with open arms to the Mom-Printer, you just have that let to it your genes. Printer will restore and use as a basis this ancient body of yours for make to you again. Will we see us again?...perhaps on vacations because you have been stayed near, in the X planet of the star Vega.
...interstellar travel constant acceleration (return to Moon)... "We do not can return to Moon"...recent declarations of an astronaut. In reality is: We do not can return to Moon, because on Moon there are Extraterrestrials, or they did stay in times past and remain their city ruins. Apollo astronaut transmission from Moon (TV): "...they are here, on aside crater, watching us...". We do not can return to Moon because still the religious are who command in the shadow over the World and their "gods" only "are" on Earth. When the Wxtraterrestrials will come to Earth: Goodbye religion and its Lies. For that reason "We do not can" return to Moon, because "God" is the same Universe, a mineral and insensitive Being who permits the suffering of the innocents in that "Third World" intentionally maintained because WITHOUT POOR AND IGNORANTS THERE IS NOT RELIGION. For that reason "We do not can" return to Moon, because there is no other Life in none "life-beyond", the unique Immortality it is coming from We self: Technological Immortality. For that reason "We do not can" return to Moon...yet.
...interstellar travel not acceleration constant (graphene: planet errant)... every bit a Terraformed planet errant into a bubble graphene how diamond transparent...with fusion reactors which will give the light and heat how an artificial sun, encircling an antigravitational field Tesla/Brown "electrogravitics" prevents objects collision against the "blue-arch of heaven"... Who needs already a star...
OBVIOUSLY USING TECH-ARTEFACTS DRONES, BALLOONS, RELIGIOUS-MISERABLES-RELIGIOUS ARE BURNING THE FORESTS IN THE ENTIRE WORLD
...interstellar travel constant aceleration (without suffering)... in the Brazil of the "Ordem e Progresso" the "children of the street" abandoned such as if they were dogs...in countries of Orient as Lebanon, children almost babies thrown away on the ground together with an adult begging alms, already from their more tender infancy they get accustomed to look the World from down and suffering...children dying of cold into refugee camps in countries with endless religion´s wars...and meanwhile shameless multireligious-pontifices in their golden palaces eating partridges, and well sheltered with the best wool in the best blankets made in England, the best boots...and not fall down their faces of shame when they look to themselves in the mirror... How they can have $50,000 million in the Bank, living on a golden skyscraper and to be dedicated to want build a barrier-wall, instead of to be dedicated to saving to all those who they can?... Off with religion, off with monarchies and off with politicians shameless.
(2)...interstellar travel constant acceleration (without suffering)... in that Brazil of the miserable ones, they say that for "to clean" the streets for the World Football Championship,,,the polic,,,assassi,,,childr,,, (someone of those majors children is capable of to kill for robbing the shoes, but the vermin are who governs and convert them in that). And FIFA "get to knew nothing", they would must have done suspend the damned World Championship and to observe 1 minute of silence for those innocents "swept away" from the streets and from the life. Can watch in photographs to two little girls begging alms, the tender creatures are joined for mutual helping to carry their solitude and abandonment... When the night goes down, to where they go?...they have searched instinctively, such as all living beings, a place for take refuge...the place of the darkness, the place of the distance, the place of the fear, the place of the rats present over there too...one day another day, one night another night... Where is that "God"?, in the homovices ceilings of the Vatic ano. Where the hope?, where the tenderness?, where the education?...at none part. Others ones, carry glue to them for inhaling and forgetting and for dying.
...viaje interestelar constante aceleración (elon tesla, jeff amazon)... si "no sabéis que hacer" ya con tantísimos $millones, ahí va una IDEA: id a África y alimentad de inmediato a los 8,500 niños y niñas que mueren de hambre cada día en el Mundo y por falta de vacunas y agua. Construid Desaladoras en las costas para regar por goteo las cosechas, usando en la red de tuberías para subir el agua por las colinas la propiedad de los vasos comunicantes. Construid Pozos en las aldeas. Dadles Paneles Solares y Aerogeneradores Eólicos para que tengan Luz. Vuestra Recompensa será ver las Sonrisas de esas inocentes criaturitas salvadas del horror por vuestra Generosidad y Bondad. Ya que los Gobiernos comandados por miserables "Trumpos" abrazabanderas siguen mirando para otro lado. Ánimo Elon. Ánimo Jeff.
