Ready to learn more about E-Paper and E-ink displays?

Martinsson is now confident that E-Paper, electronic ink or E-ink technology is mature enough to be a viable alternative in the right industrial application where static images are dominating usage.

We can describe the pros and limitations for you with this technology vs. LCD or OLED Technology and make it visible to you!

E-Paper, short for electronic paper, is a display technology designed to imitate the appearance of traditional ink on paper. E-Paper offers a paper-like reading experience with low power consumption and high readability in various ambient light conditions. This makes E-Paper well-suited for applications such as e-readers, digital signage, and smart labels.

E-Paper displays, in general, have a lower operating temperature than LCD and OLED due to the absence of backlight or light-emitting dots. E-Paper withstands a temp range of -10C to 60C as standard. Extended temp range can be achieved on demand.

Monochrome or RGB colour?

E-Paper invented as monochrome display technology back in 1996 at MIT Massachusetts, the technology has evolved over the years, leading to the development of RGB colour e-paper displays. These displays use different colour pigments in addition to the black and white particles, allowing for the representation of a limited range of RGB colours.

Example RGB colour e-paper displays

The limitations of e-paper?

Keep in mind, Monochrome e-paper exhibits slow refresh rates, a grey-to-grey state, up to 0.5 seconds compared to LCD and OLEDs milliseconds. Moreover, colour e-paper exhibits even slower refresh rates grey-to-grey state, 1.5-2 seconds, depending on the operation mode.

Conclusion

Overall, this “intelligent paper” provides a unique combination of paper-like reading experience, low power consumption, low operation temp due to low power consumption and high readability in various lighting conditions. E-Paper has found its way to the e-reader market, offering users a more comfortable and efficient way to consume digital content and digital signage with E-Paper is up next!
