The far term target

A personal desktop gem-gum factory fabblet with dynamically deployed protective hood.

The personal gem gum factory is:

  • Your personal device that can push out virtually every thing* of your daily use.
    (* at least every inedible thing)

The personal gem gum factory makes:

  • Your products that are as cheap as the abundant mining-free raw materials that it processes.
  • Your products that are far superior to today's best and ridiculously expensive high tech products.
  • Your products potentially in an environmentally friendly effluent free way
    (also advanced recycling is faster than producing from scratch)

The existence of a personal fabricator will have profound impact human society on a global scale. The basis for such a personal fabricator - the atomically precise manufacturing (APM) technology - is beginning to be figured out today.

APM in the near term and APM in the far term

  • On this wiki "atomically precise manufacturing" (or APM) will be interpreted in a wider sense. Including both earlier precursor systems in the near term and the targeted later systems in the far term.
  • On this wiki the shorthand "gem-gum technology" will be used to refer to the far term target.
    A technically accurate description of the far term target technology would be:
    "atomically resolving gemstone based metamaterial manufacturing and technology"

For more details see the main article:
Near term and far term.

Atomically Precise Manufacturing (APM)

What APM is not

While early APM may have overlap with these areas the far term goals are very different.

What APM actually is

APM is basically the capability of manufacturing products such that the atoms they are constituted of link (bind) to each other in "exactly" the way one desires them to. Since "absolute exactness" in other words "making no errors ever" is a fundamental physical impossibility one just aims for extremely low error rates. On the long run error rates comparable to the bit-error-rates one can find in todays digital data processing systems.
