Abstract
Printed functionality means adding new functionalities into flexible
substrate, typically paper and plastic, in addition to regular graphical
properties. Hybrid media is closely related to printed functionality. The
objective of a research project at VTT was to create technology and business
roadmaps on printed functionality and hybrid media. The objective was also to
bring together the knowledge on printed functionality scattered around VTT.
The work combined knowledge on media and printing technologies, electronics
and optics as well as diagnostic packaging to be able to estimate future
turnover and applications in this area. The results will serve as a base for
future research projects. Printed functionality and hybrid media is a
fast-growing technology area in which Finland has a good chance to gain a
significant role globally, especially in areas related to the current forest
industry.
