PixelRoller Mk2

www.random-international.com

PixelRoller is a paint roller that paints pixels, designed as a rapid response printing tool specifically to print digital information such as imagery or text onto a great range of surfaces. The content is applied in continuous strokes by the user. PixelRoller can be seen as a handheld "printer", based around the ergonomics of a paintroller, that lets you create the images by your own hand.

I would like to know what you think 'true art' is...

:)

Its not fake jesus christ.

Completly possible, its just like a printer.

Keeps memory of where it is. And paints.

Explains why they cant pick it up after starting, and why they have to move that slow.

To those who think this is fake:

Let's concentrate on the part of the movie from 1:43 to ~3:17.

At 2:09 there is a vertical (or horizontal from the video's perspective) line drawn that is overlapped at ~3:00 with a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT IMAGE. Now, this doesn't quite rule out computer animation, but there is no way it can be a relief.

You'll also notice at 2:40 to 2:44 when the human steps away. This is obviously to load a new image into the printer (or to ask a buddy to do the very same).

That would actually take more time and be more expensive than actually building the roller in question.

Maybe I'll go make a several thousand dollar prank and post it on Youtube to make people think it's real!

Impossible in real life? The only thing impossible here is what you think your intelligence is.

Although impractical, it would be possible to make a sort of small-scale GPS that had three points around the paper and a receiver to triangulate the printer itself. Then, using a computer program, it would "draw" a box showing where the printer would be and paint what was in that box.

This particular printer doesn't use this technology, but if they did that could be the "Mark 3".
