While it's very cool that this is now possible, I think this has almost no use case. A business that is able to afford e-ink's high prices could also buy an LCD/OLED, which could also show motion and much better colors.
- htk 7y agoE-ink advantage is not about price/motion/colors. Is about how close it is with printed paper, where external light like the Sun helps the visibility. It’s also interesting regarding energy requirements, as you can keep the image displayed without the need of power.
- hinkley 7y agoOne of the reasons I keep an eye on eInk is that I love the idea of information radiators, but I always get stymied by running wires to a suitable spot. Data has been mostly solved, power has not.
