It seems like science fiction but it's not. Boris Fritz, a senior engineer technical specialist at Northrop Grumman, tells the Low-Volume Manufacturers Association that in our lifetime, we will likely be able to hold our breath for 4 hours. Fritz and L-VMA's Dean Rotbart talk about Voxals, Utility Fog, Programmable Materials and other technologies related to additive fabrication.

  • is this guy also incharge of the fluxcapsitor?

  • @kaleb4444 You have no faith in science.  Boris Fritz is brilliant and very well grounded. If he were working on a flux capacitor, I'd invest in it.

  • I will check back soon with Boris Fritz and see if he has any updates to his forecast. But I do think it is small-minded to dismiss his vision as 'fantasy land.' All inventions begin with ideas that seem unrealistic, until someone has the courage to dream them and make them real.

  • Not so long ago, video cell phones seemed like a Star Trek fantasy. Now we learn that in the future, we'll all be able to swim underwater at length with no equipment and play on our very own holodecks. All we need are Vulcan's to make Gene Rodenberry's world come true.

  • People with no heart beats driving foglet cars to the hospital.....and they say the future is looking bleak for humanity!! BAH!!

  • me holding breath for 4 hours chilling at the bottom of the pool life gaurds: shit is he gonna come up

  • @xXVeEtOXx That is very true. You are clearly a kind and caring person. I do share the wealth. . I run my own business were if you make less than so much per year you can sign up then you get a certain amount of money per month from me out of my pocket. Within a certain area of course. I don't do that all across the country. But in a few cities.

  • @defendingdog You should share the wealth... fuck one dollar to one houndred families is progress...

  • @MohoBiechiz That explains your spelling intelligence.

  • @xXVeEtOXx You are exactly right. The poor won't be able to afford it. Its a good thing I am very well off.

  • All I'm wondering is will the low/middle class be able to afford this amazing shit? If not, then we're still on square one.
