You wake up in the middle of the night and head for the kitchen/bathroom/garden/wherever - it's pitch black and while you know your way around, a little light would be helpful.
So you let your hand glide along the wallpaper, and as you do, it responds with a gentle glow (powered/triggered by the pressure
of your hand) that follows you as you walk down the hall, leaving a ghostly trail that fades over time.
The same technique can be employed to generate footprints in lino.

Nice. Perhaps the paper could somehow harness "free energy" from the environment and store it, so it can be released at the spot when you need it. Now we need to find a non-crackpot source of free energy (Ambient light? Temperature difference between wall and interior air? With enough surface area, this might work--but is unlikely to be cheap) |
