Data Can Now Be Stored on Paper

[Singh With Dunalli]

WOW man, technology is really moving fast isn't it. Look at the transformation of humans from cave men, to living in mansions. :lol:

That's very interesting...and it's also very interesting to see how technology has changed the lives of humans... I wonder what's next?

Actually, this is a hoax. He was claiming something on the order of 450GB on a sheet of fullscap paper: 8" x 14".

Google it up: many people have shown that this is IMPOSSIBLE. (The best resolution you can get is about 1200dpi, especially for a scanner. So that equals 134,400 dots on one sheet of paper (going right to the edges). The best quality color recognition that you can get is MAYBE 256 colors (for a scanner). so that means 34,406,400 possible combinations.

That works out to 32.8 MB of data. Not 450GB.

And also, the guy saw 432 pages of typed paper on a 4 inch card. That is only a few kb of data.
