Still from How It's Made S32E01

Summary

lexible films are layered with microscopic electronic components and electronic ink to create thin electrophoretic displays. Porcelain-coated steel is bonded to a rigid backing for dry-erase boards, compressed-air mechanisms are assembled and accuracy-tested in air rifles, and quartz is mixed with resin and decorative materials before being moulded, cured and polished into countertops.
