Voxals, Utility Fog and Other RAPID Wonders: A Conversation with Boris Fritz of Northrup Grumman
The future holds the promise of allowing heart attack victims to take their sweet time in getting to a hospital; underwater divers swimming for hours without any equipment whatsoever; and homes that pack themselves up when you go on vacation and serve as a park until your return.
All that might seem like pure bunk if it weren't coming from the mouth of Boris Fritz, a senior engineer technical specialist in the material and process laboratory of Northrop Grumman Corp. Boris, who also served as a RAPID 2008 conference advisor, regaled this year's SME gathering with a peek into what may become a reality in our lifetimes.
Following his remarks to the entire assembly, Dean Rotbart, director of the Low-Volume Manufacturers Association, had the opportunity to ask Boris to repeat some of his more amazing forecasts. Dean's report, now available on YouTube, can be accessed here as well.

Boris Fritz and his colleagues are similar to Don Quixote -- chasing windmills and conquering worlds most people only imagine. Programmable material, utility fog, foglets, voxals and respirocytes are the stuff dreams are made of. Keep on dreaming Boris!

Every body admits that today's life seems to be not very cheap, but some people need cash for different issues and not every one earns big sums cash. Thus to receive fast home loans or commercial loan would be good way out.
