What is a Palmtop Printer?

The handheld printer ^[1] (PrintBrush) is a hand-held inkjet printer invented by the engineer Alex Breton in Stockholm, Sweden. It weighs only 250 grams. It is equipped with optical and navigation software similar to a computer mouse. Pictures and text are printed on any flat surface, including paper, plastic, wood, and even fabric.

Handheld printer ^[1]

In 2000, one of Europe's largest rubber stamp companies found Alex Breton, hoping to provide some product ideas. As a result, Bretton did not design a new type of seal for the stamp company, but instead developed a handheld

The handheld printer seems to work more like a computer mouse than a printer. It comes with a Philips developed

Although the prototype of the handheld printer was completed in less than 2 years, research on this technology took less than 10 years and cost $ 10 million. Bretton has a team of optical engineers and other experts recruited to continuously optimize the printer's navigation system with each new release. The most recent was the replacement of previous LED-based sensors with lasers. They also added a color function, which requires an algorithm that can quickly determine the combination of inks of various colors, which is necessary to produce 16 million color effects.

In early 2012, PrintBrush, a handheld printer with a built-in camera, will be on the market for instant photo printing. By then, it may be the world's smallest commercial printer.

With PrintBrush, we have a printer in our hands. How to use it, everyone may have their own "creativity". I thought about a few: Triathlon / Pentathlon competitions. Print the number on the contestant's arm, of course, using waterproof ink; the writer signed the book for sale, took a photo with the fan, and then printed this photo with the signature on the title page of the book before receiving the next one.
