Liquid Metal Capsules Used To Make Self-Healing Electronics

And that's why this is probably useless for consumer grade electronics.

I mean really - how often do you break TRACES in a motherboard or PCB in any home consumer product? I haven't ever seen a failure like that get out of QC. The things that kill consumer electronics are corrosion, solder point failure (usually from overpressured heatsinks or heat based warping, see RROD), bad/exploding capacitors, and the occasional power surge or ESD damage.

MAYBE in aeronautics? Maybe maybe MAYBE in automobiles, if you ha
