Basically its a 3 Axis Coordinate Scanning Pick and Place system. One need a very high resolution XYZ axis servo/Stepper Table (compatible with tissue size resolution) and a tissue dropper pipit and a CAD CAM software interface with little vacuumed pick and place picker to produce a very basic structure. For more sophisticated systems like this video, a pattern monitoring video system based on image processing, temperature, humidity and some other layering medium may required.

WOAH~!! COol stuff..

well, depending upon the level of atrophy that the patient has gone through, will determine if said individual would be able to just walk home the same day as though the injury were nothing. If a person has been paraplegic, or even quadraplegic, for a long time, the muscles just wouldn't be able to support the body. This means long months of painful physical therapy, which is of course far from walking away free and clear.

we don't even need to print it. it's already been done too. In many different manners in fact

"or even artificial wombs "
OMG print a womb and a set of lungs and a heart. The times they are a changin'

Wow. I made this name up and it's a technological breakthrough. :P.

In that case, why is Professors like Michio Kaku predicting it will take 50 years? Is it, to provoke scientists hurry up, keeping to realistic boundaries or trying not to screw his own career by giving off false information?

well, since functioning rat hearts have already been printed and transplanted I think it will be sooner than that.

The tech is much further along than this. Functional rat hearts have already been printed(though not transplanted yet AFAIK). Printing larger human sized heart may require use of hibernation tech that's the IKARIA corps baby or hemapure or other narrow infiltrate oxygen suppliers.

take this tech, add a software program to visualize and repath, then print a 2mm section of spine to re-connect spines too. really simple, and the value? $1mn per procedure, nearly pure profit, the patient goes home as if there was no illness to begin with.
not only this but when we legitimize cloning or even artificial wombs we've got immortality and a quick and easy cure to every single disease out there.
brilliant work
