Abstract:
The invention provides a water-activatable luminescent particulate material (1) comprising particles (100), wherein each particle (100) comprises a solid state light source (10) functionally coupled with a water-activatable battery (20) and a water absorbing shell (120) enclosing at least part of the water-activatable battery (20). The invention also provides a luminescent particulate material spray device comprising a container configured to host the water-activatable luminescent particulate material.
Abstract:
Method and apparatus for the production of a 3D printed object (100), wherein the method comprises (i) a 3D printing stage, the 3D printing stage comprising 3D printing a 3D printable material (110) to provide the 3D printed object (100), wherein the 3D printing stage further comprises forming during 3D printing a channel (200) in the 3D printed object (100) under construction, wherein the method further comprises (ii) a filling stage comprising filling the channel (200) with a flowable material (140), wherein the flowable material (140) comprises a functional material (140a), wherein the functional material (140a) has one or more of electrically conductive properties, thermally conductive properties, light transmissive properties, and magnetic properties, and immobilizing said functional material (140a).
