A team of researchers in Electroninks Incorporated, a startup company located at Research Park of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, created a water-based, non-toxic conductive ink that was noted as the Invention of the Month by Popular Science. The team began by developing a prototype using pens from a different company and replacing the ink with their special silver ink. Once completed, they started a Kickstarter campaign to earn funding for a mass production of the final form of the pens.
The prototype pens are Sakura Gelly Roll Metallic pens that are cleaned by hand. The ink is replaced with the silver conductive ink that the researchers created. In order to have the right amount of ink flow out to make smooth lines, the ink is precisely tuned.
So get one for yourself and start making your projects simple and effective.
