Nice job Yota and E Ink. I hope some designers utilize the E Ink flexibility of the screen technology… Use it on curved surfaces.

I also saw a wonderful picture of children in a classroom in Maasai country lifting up kindles in glee.
i have used the internet to help my community get information using a village noticeboard and through the internet Google got to know of my innovation and they came over and shot a two minute video seen by alot of people http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OE63BYWdqC4

as we look towards providing personal e readers for kids a Public Display e-ink noticeboard can do alot to keep whole communities educated day by day.
i have a fantastic idea that can merge the two

]]> Comment on The E Ink persistency contest – from E-Ink-Info.com by Renuka Prasad Sahukara http://www.eink.com/blog/the-e-ink-persistency-contest-from-e-ink-info-com/#comment-381 Renuka Prasad Sahukara Mon, 10 Dec 2012 13:16:51 +0000 http://www.eink.com/blog/?p=109#comment-381 I am not sure how it the years-long persistency can be used.. but
An e-Ink panel with a touch layer can double up as a second screen for the many android phones out there supporting MHL standards. (We know that USB is a one way communication port.) The micro usb port on the Android Phone can output the display to an e-Ink display with a touch layer. The screen would retain the image, until it changes. Any user interaction via touch would be read via the same micro-usb port, after which the display changes. Of course, there could be an app running in the background which could control the secondary display. Even the E-Ink screen could be made as a primary display, with the back-lit LCD as the secondary, only to consume multimedia… Hope I could convey.

The downside is that the contrast is not as good as paper, but with the new backlit e-readers ( i.e kobo glo, kindle paperwhite) it looks a lot better and since it’s light is directed on the paper instead of your face, you don’t feel tired or have an headache with it.

I certainly would like to have E-Ink on more devices. It is potentially much healthier in a world where we watch too much content..
