Nanocoating

Just read the article about nanocoating over at Tom's. Apparently, this company has come up with a way to "spray" electronics with invisible-to-the-eye electrons in order to make them completely waterproof.

When reading this, I immediately thought about using it on the INSIDE of a computer case, and essentially filling the whole thing with water for a cool system. I have no idea whether that would work on the actual components themselves rather than simply the exterior of a phone or ipad, but if so...

Can you imagine a system where the components are literally submerged in water? Could present a whole new type of computer case(s), especially on the inside, with "bags" or something similar. Hell, 10 years from now computers may come with a DRAIN button, right next to POWER and RESET. Fantastical I know.

Does anyone have any clue as to whether this would be viable or even viable with modifications? I have no idea what affect that coating of invisible electrons would have on say, the surface of a motherboard.

I don't care whether it's a new product or not. I just read about it today. If no one finds the topic at all interesting, this thread will die very easily.

If not, then not.
 
Your wrong. We have to have a release date and interesting on what and how it could be used and what they are using for. Its interesting. Relax.
 
Frankly, I wouldn't count on it to keep a watertight seal, but it does mean that our portable electronics will be more toilet/baby/swimming pool resistant.

That is, in four or five years, when it's actually marketable.

Meanwhile, it is way cool, regardless of how old the story is.
