LED紫外灯打印机 字迹会逐渐淡化

据科技博客网站Gizmodo报道，一台名叫“忏悔录”打印机的设备不用石墨，而是用LED紫外灯在光敏纸张上打印人们做出的忏悔，随着时间的流逝，纸上的内容也会消失。

除非你真的想实现一个无纸化办公的环境，利亚特·西格尔的 “忏悔录”打印机不适合打印工作中的TPT报告。这款打印机不采用墨水或石墨，利用16个紫外线LED灯在一张布满感光颜料的纸张上“打印”信息，当打印的灯头经过后不久，纸张上就显示出蓝色的打印痕迹。

但打印出来的内容只能在纸上停留一会呢?西格尔的设计意图是将在各种社交网站上披露的私密且匿名的忏悔录打印出来。他认为，如果将这些内容公布，就等同于本人承认了自己的错误，可以释怀了。随着字迹的逐渐淡化，就象征着过去所犯下的错误逐渐被原谅和遗忘。法院应该不会采用这种方式来接受人们的忏悔吧……

This LED Printer Creates Fleeting Messages on Photosensitive Paper

Liat Segal's Confession Machine printer isn't designed for running copies of TPT reports at work, unless you're really making an effort to realize a truly paperless office. Because instead of ink or toner, Segal's creation uses an array of 16 ultraviolet LEDs to 'print' messages on a static surface covered with a photosensitive paint that turns bright blue as the printhead passes over—but only momentarily.

But why the temporary fleeting results? Segal's creation is designed to print intimate but anonymous confessions that have been revealed on various social networks. By making them public, it's as if the person is admitting to their mistake—so it's no longer hanging over the heads. And as the messages fade, it's as if the mistake is being actively forgiven and forgotten. If only the courts agreed to adopt this technology.
