Why on earth would you need e-ink in an environment where you have full control over the light? Just use a normal display and set it to the brightness you like

Just use a normal display and set it to the brightness you like. More even illumination, no flickering when the outside light changes. If you really want to: put a photo sensor or two on the outside, smooth the f* out of them and use that to dim up or down a bit.

- anotheryou 3y agoActually the device doesn't seem to use ambient light at all. not sure backlight would be that much less efficient than side-lit.

- anotheryou 3y agowell paper has the best "auto" ambient light adjustment. I don't tweak my phone screen to me room lamp every time I read something on it.
