Technology forecast on ink‐jet head technology applications in rapid prototyping

Abstract

Presents a technology forecast for ink‐jet head technology in 3D printers used in rapid prototyping. Gathers information via an expert opinion survey and from the Georgia Tech Library and the World Wide Web about future development and possible impacts. Shows that the technology is still in its infancy but receiving increased interest. Predicts the path the market may take and presents an outcome table for impact assessment. Considers the potential role of public policy in the technology development.
