Hi BS:
The most extensive evaluation I know of starts at this page on our site:
http://home.att.net/~castleisland/rm_c.htm
The article is based mostly on a lot of research into the IP of the field and describes
the wide range of future possibilities. Intellectual property is the main place where you
can learn such info at the moment. Many companies that may be using some form of RM are
likely keeping their work under wraps.
The text is linked in appropriate places to other sections on the site which delve more
deeply into the details. There are a handful of survey papers and you can find references
to the better of them in the bibliography of the section.
There may be some video someplace - but it's not likely and I'm certainly not aware of
it. If you find something, please let me know. Terry Wohlers is a well-known and
knowledgeable speaker in the area of RP and related areas. Another person who is at the
forefront of RM on the academic side is Phil Dickens of Loughboro Univ.
