Cronin Group "Chemputer" Technology Features in Technology Today
The Cronin Group “Chemputer” technology has featured in Technology Today in Techdirections, which is described as “a magazine and website for technology, career/technical, and engineering education”. In the article, which can be found online, the author compares the chemputer to the replicator from the Star Trek universe. Although materialising objects from energy may still be in the realms of science fiction, the Chemputer represents the first step towards being able to synthesise any chemical on demand, a feat which, until recently, would have been unthinkable.
