Electricity-Conducting Paint Lets You Paint Switches On Walls
Ғылым және технология
London-based Bare Conductive makes paint that conducts electricity. It's called electric paint and it can be used on a variety of surfaces including paper, plastic, wood, cardboard, or glass.
Electric paint uses carbon to conduct electricity.
"Inside of this liquid, there are lots of small particles of carbon. When the liquid dries, those particles get closer together," Bare Conductive CEO and cofounder Matt Johnson told Business Insider. "When the liquid dries, those particles get closer together over which the electricity can flow."
Electric paint is used with a circuit board which can then be connected to a computer or a switch. The paint acts as a sensor for the device.
Since its launch in 2009, Bare Conductive has sold over 200,000 products and the paint has been at the core of several creative projects, like an interactive wall, a music play table, or a sound mural.

This is ridiculously amazing.
Why is this my first time hearing of such a thing?
The efficiency and conductivity would be very handy to know..

They need to give credit to the people who have been working on this for many years and sharing here on youtube and else where. BEFORE claiming it as theirs!
Are silver conductive paints thermally conductive too? If yes, how much is the thermal conductivty?
Sir, its awesome & I feel cryptic after watching this video.I am very interested in this work &Can I be a student of you.
Brilliant.
Can the paint be covered by say a lacquer to protect the paint, but still be conductive? I would imagine you need a thicker coat of paint than lacquer or is there a high wear paint?
Really cool - really really cool
"electricpaint youtube" is what I found in my notifications , lol
Now my hypothetical question is, could one create a house that instead of wires, has these painted on the inside of the walls, It could be designed similar to that of circuit board lines.

No. Too much resistance, not enough amps. Good for micro circuits, sensors, and perhaps nanotech!
Question, what kind of a resistance does this paint have?

So... grinded charcoal in a paint solution? TAKE ALL MY MONEY
Better than the 'fork in the socket'
Do we get hurt if we try it in high voltage?? Is touching the circuit always safe??
Can it replace wires altogether?
Have y’all tried to make this non hydrofolic so it doesn’t easily peel?
It works without motherboard that’s great
If I was to make my own "electric paint" what would be the best carrier/medium for the graphite or carbon?

emu i thought i was the only one who missed that part. As it stands this might not even be true. The crucial part about this video is to explain how hovering your hand and/or touching the paint agitates electrons.

Yep. I'm familiar with similar tech, which connects the circuits embodied in the paint when pressure is applied, but that doesnt seem to be the case here.

Can a electrical conductive paint color be changed when electricity is introduced ? JohnZ
Make that red, dry it, crush it into powder Redstone IRL It’s my idea, give credit to me if you STEAL MY HARD-THOUGHT IDEAD YA FILTHY BUSINESSMAN/BUSINESSWITCH Thank you.
How conductive is it?
Question is , This paint Doesn't have water in it so how it will be safe to use in rainy season ? ( as we can see damp on the walls )

Say you have a template for a sensor. Say it's a square. Now, take that square and make two of them. Assemble the sensor to your lamp as you would in this video, except you take your other square and place directly over the firstly sensor with some cushion separating the two. Now when you press on it, the two squares will meet and thus complete the circuit. This is essentially the same technology as a regular button.
do they have a white version so it could blend with the wall?

Oh a switch that needs constant power to work.... 1) it needs its own constant power to work as switch, so loss of energy, might not be much but it can add up 2) it needs its own IC and probably programming 3) questionable paint longevity. Long story short, they present this as solutions but it is a gimmick after all.
