Abstract

The invention concerns a method for producing electrically conductive patterns on a non-developable surface of an insulating substrate, and the resulting device. The invention is characterized in that it consists in: coating the non-developable surface (6) uniformly with a layer of electrically conductive material (9), which is in turn coated with a layer of protective material (10), and then, using a mobile laser head, eliminating by laser ablation the portions of said protective substance layer (10) which do not cover said electrically conductive patterns, then eliminating the portions of said electrically conductive material (9) exposed by the elimination of said portions of said protective material layer (10).
