The Society for Imaging Science and Technology (IS&T) announced the upcoming 27th International Conference on Digital Printing Technologies (NIP27) and Digital Fabrication 2011 event Oct 2-6, 2011 at the Hilton Minneapolis. Researchers from industry and academia will have an opportunity to learn about the latest scientific and technical advances in imaging systems, including electronic paper and paper-like displays, and novel digital printing systems and materials. Additionally, a special focus on design for environmental sustainability is featured.
“Incredibly advanced printing technologies and materials are changing the industry,” said conference chair Xavier Bruch from Hewlett-Packard's research labs. “We are bringing together global leaders to present and discuss the exciting new market opportunities these technologies are enabling."
The event is expected to draw more than 700 attendees, with 37 exhibitors. With more than 250 technical papers being presented, attendees will discuss recent advances in non-impact printing applications allowing the community to address new and growing markets including web and cloud printing, digital packaging, high speed ink jet, textile and fabric printing, and security and forensic printing.
Co-located with the NIP27 event, Digital Fabrication explores the expanding field of digital printing technologies that go well beyond traditional printing methods. Techniques such as 3D printing are being used to develop printed sensors, photovoltaic cells, lighting devices, biomaterials, electronic devices and future new applications.
