Zink: Inkless Printing With Colorless Color

Zink: Inkless Printing With Colorless Color, IEEE Spectrum: http://spectrum.ieee.org/consumer-electronics/gadgets/zink-inkless-printing-with-colorless-color/0
The story of Zink is not just one of a unique technology. It's about engineers and scientists pursuing a dream deep within a corporate research laboratory, long after most companies came to view research as a luxury they could do without. It's a story of how those researchers stayed true to their dream, even as the venerable corporation whose 70-year-old brick walls sheltered them drifted into bankruptcy. The story even has a Madoff-like Ponzi scheme that sent key investors to prison. It truly is a modern fairy tale.
