The world's most beautiful sustainable font
I'd hate to burst his bubble, but this "eco" mode could be done (maybe it is already?) programmatically for ALL FONTS.
And words already take up very small percentage of coverage on your average sheet of paper. So saving 33% of 5% isn't that much.
Yes, it's an artistic font, but you do much more to save the planet by buying hax0red printers with huge user-refillable ink storage.
Truck loses load of heavy paper rolls on the road
I used to have a job fetching new roles of paper for big industrial printers. As best I can recall, each one contained a 22-inch wide by 90 mile long piece of paper, weighed in the neighborhood of a ton and was strapped to a palette. If you got the wheel of the palette jack stuck in the crack separating the freight elevator from the hallway, it was a problem. If you were unusually clumsy and let one topple over onto its side, it was a very big problem.
3D Printed Houses In China
I'm pretty sure the future intentions for this technology is to have a printer you can move to the site, and it would build the entire house structure over several days.
But of course this still needs a lot of work... those walls look terrible and rough as hell, and they're almost completely hollow, so unless they filled it with insulating foam, the thermal properties of the building must suck.
IF this type of technology reaches the point where it can build houses as good as a regular one, AND it can also reduce the price by a good chunk... then it will have a huge impact on construction. This and also the pre-built structure format. Let's not forget the chinese built a 30 story hotel in just 15 days, two years ago:

It doesn't seem all that useful to 3D print walls, since there are traditional building techniques that have better results and are likely quicker.
The only way I could see this being advantageous is if you can roll the printer into a job site and it can build the walls with a single worker.

Ants build a gecko from scratch!
Nature's 3d printer!
Light painting with pixelstick
And btw it takes out every bit of "creativity" and "art" from light painting too!
It's like "painting" the Mona Lisa with a color printer!
The Tube of Mystery
A computer printer output is, by definition, a Computer Generated Image.
The fact they composited in the analog version of After Effects doesn't impress me.
"Eye of the Tiger" on a dot matrix printer
Ahh sift.. you are so easily entertained. I figured after the past decade of making drive components from hard and floppy drives and scanners make music, something like a printer would be old hat by now.
"Eye of the Tiger" on a dot matrix printer
It's a printer connected to a computer. On what planet is that not "digital equipment"?
This is why mechanical devices will always be cooler than digital equipment

Damn I wish my dot matrix printer could have done this in the 80's!!

Better Mousetrap? No, Better Cardboard Box!
The assumption you're making is that these kids are the first people to look at changing packaging when they're not. There are some unbelievably clever card packing solutions out there. Just go and buy a large format HP printer and marvel at the way the box fits every component perfectly, its a real work of art. Rather than a simple box packed with polystyrene packaging they use almost exclusively cleverly folded card inserts and boxes to pack their stuff.
That's fine for very precise requirements but for general packing there's a simplicity to a cardboard box that's very useful. They're dead cheap to make, the material cost is tiny so any savings there really aren't going to be great.
It's the universalness of the product that makes it so useful. Everyone knows what to do with a box, and even if you'd never seen on before you could pretty quickly work out what to do. This clever solution they've found in this video is missing that bit. You'd need to print instructions or train people how to use it and then all your economy is gone.
It's a big industry and the box makers have very clever box designers already working for them and already doing incredibly clever things for lots of very large companies. There's no catching up to be done. The only difference between these kids and the real box designers is that the kids have a youtube video to impress people who aren't in the industry.
Regardless of whether or not this catches on, it does interest me how many years/decades it takes for intelligent human design to catch up with mass-manufacturing.
