The Artefact group has developed a radically simple concept printer with a touchscreen interface that provides a 1:1 image preview for effortless printing. The product is called SWYP (See What You Print).
SWYP illustrates that it is possible to innovate in very mature and stagnant markets. By re-thinking the product and focusing on core issues it is possible to revitalize a product that has lost its consumer appeal.
While this is just a concept product its worth noting its minimalist design combined with ingenious functionality. See the video!
