Prototype of the ‘world’s first fluid circuit board’ can be physically rewired in less than a minute, startup claims — could make hardware iteration 1,000 times faster than traditional PCB
Itera, a deep tech startup, has unveiled a prototype of the world's first fluid circuit board, which uses liquid metal alloys controlled by electric fields to form conductive traces. This technology allows engineers to physically rewire circuits in under a minute, potentially accelerating hardware iteration cycles by up to 1,000 times compared to traditional PCBs. The company has secured $12 million in seed funding from investors including Upfront Ventures and Costanoa Ventures to bring its product to market. AI
IMPACT This technology could dramatically speed up hardware development cycles, potentially impacting the pace of AI hardware innovation and deployment.
