![]() If you are going to produce these documents, it doesn't make sense to access them one at a time, and the developers realized that a solution was needed to make it easier to access, edit and manage the files you create. The next stage of the evolution was file management. A subset of developers thought there was a segment of users who were not comfortable with markdown, and they decided to incorporate rich text editing into the mix: Desk PM and TextNut are good examples of this. They were joined by solutions like DeskPM, and lately iA Writer (who publishes to Medium). The developers incorporated blog publishing as a feature set. Byword decided to become a write and publish solution. Distinguished by minimalistic executions, the developers concentrated on providing an environment for you to write in. Initially, we had the launch of single document text editors: iA Writer, Byword, Erato, and Typora are the typical examples in this genre. We have seen the steady evolution of markdown based text editors in the last few years. It is described by the developer as "a simple, beautiful yet powerful text + markdown editor for your Mac." Context LightPaper has come out of beta and is now ready for your use. As technology improves, companies like Rohinni will hopefully find ways to get their paper into homes, supermarkets, and -as they mentioned- anywhere there is light.JanuLightPaper: One App for Your Markdown Needs. If they can pull this off, Rohinni and LED paper can really change the lighting industry. Given LED paper’s super-lightweight quality, I would anticipate first seeing the technology applied to TVs, mobile devices, and printed media before anything else.Īccording to one marketing executive at Rohinni, “Anywhere there is a light, this could replace that.” He followed up with: “Everything the light light touches is our kingdom.” (Okay, that one was from The Lion King, but it’s still pretty applicable). ![]() Rohinni has said they plan to corner the commercial and industrial markets before moving elsewhere. Some speculate that 3D-printed light paper could be available to consumers by the end of 2015. ![]() okay, okay, I’ll stop here, but the point is, the potential here is tremendous. LightPaper could change how we read, and write, and advertise, and take pictures, and decorate, and customize cars, and. It may even eliminate lighting fixtures, lamps, and light bulbs-we could simply lay strips of LED paper above our couches or on our ceilings to light up our rooms. Paper-thin lighting could someday replace (or enhance) fine art, television screens, window tinting, and logos on mobile devices. I have to admit, this whole thing is pretty darn cool-I mean, imagine what we could do with 3D light-paper printers at home! (Maybe we could build the coolest collection of paper airplanes ever, that’s what.)īut I digress. Another couple of LightPaper perks is that it is considered eco-friendly and that it will be cheap to manufacture. Secondly, it can be made into any shape desired by designers-much like regular paper, we can mold it into whatever we want. Within LightPaper, there are thousands of tiny diodes each one is nearly the size of a human red blood cell and lights up when a current is run through them.Ī paper-thin LED surface like LightPaper has many unique qualities. Heard of the new Oreo Thins? Well, think thinner. LightPaper is made with a mixture of ink and extremely small LEDs applied to a conductive surface and then sealed between two other thin layers. It is paper-thin and can be used to print a light-up version of, well, just about anything. Rohinni has invented an LED light product aptly named LightPaper. So what’s next? A startup company called Rohinni says, “We print light.” A Paper-Thin LED Light Even so, we’ve only begun to utilize the full capabilities of 3D printing. The range of applications for 3D printing are well known, as the technology is already used creatively in foods, metals, ceramics, and even organ transplant surgeries.
