Electronics Construction Today Limits Differentiation

Conventional electronics rely on multi-layer construction that imposes design constraints - structure drives design: Separate structural, mechanical

and electrical pieces Flat, rigid PCB dictates form Depth required for illumination

Design & functional differentiation requires 3D embedded smartness: Thin Light weight Seamless Cost-effective Conformal electronics
