Kind of cool, yet very retarded at the same time.

I'd have probably paid as much as 50 whole cents to see that thing nail him in the junk.

I agree, cool, yet retarded.

And the video was kind of crappy, they just traced a guy, they didn't really "print" an image.

I demand a CMYK paintball printer.

A cool idea, nevertheless.

I was hoping it would paint a picture with different colors of paint (even maybe try to blend the paint) and not trace. I know the math involved is pretty intense. At least there difference between that device and a real printer is, a real printer you have paper jams. In this one you might have a paintball jam.

Odd. When I saw this video - it was a senior project for a design engineering class.
