This breakthrough could be what the car was to the carriage if they can find scalable ways to advance the manufacturing process. Based on the video, it does not look like the technical limitations are great. I wonder what this would look like in the form of a solar or thermal energy transfer method - i.e. solar to mechanical at astronomical energy efficiency levels.
- personalcompute 13y agoI expect there is a lot of MEMS value at the current size, but is there good reason to believe it will scale?
- jamesaguilar 13y agoThe main reason to believe that is that nine times out of ten a lab finds something out and announces it to the world, as has been done here, it ends up being infeasible to manufacture. There are about a willion "revolutionary new battery technology" announcements for every one that hits production.
