     Could anyone tell which RP technologies in the future will be able to use different materials to build 
one part.
     I have heard that Stratsys wants to use two or more heads in their FDM  machine to be able to use 
different materials in one building process.
     And there is the ProtoJet process of Texas Instruments that is able to build areas of a part in different 
colours. But I dont't know much about this.
