E Ink is a brand of electronic paper display technology commercialized by the E Ink Corporation, which was co-founded in 1997 by MIT undergraduates JD Albert and Barrett Comiskey, MIT Media Lab professor Joseph Jacobson, Jerome Rubin and Russ Wilcox.

How to Add an E-Ink Display to Your Project

An E-Ink (or E-Paper) display is somewhat larger and hence easier to read, and has the advantage that the display is retained even when it's switched off! But it takes several seconds to redraw the display.

The E-Ink display seemed ideal for my application as I could program the Arduino to wake up only every few hours, take a reading and display it before going back to sleep. It's then of no consequence that it takes several seconds to redraw the display.

E-Ink displays as multifunctional signage systems

E-Ink displays have become indispensable nowadays and serve as a real alternative to print products due to their outstanding advantages.

E-Ink displays are screens that display text and graphics digitally without losing the positive characteristics of paper. They do not consume much power and, thanks to e-paper technology, are easy on the eyes. Due to the viewing angle stability and high contrast, text can be read very well, especially over a longer period of time, whereas conventional LCD displays lead to eye fatigue in the long run. Since sunlight has little effect on the readability of the E-Ink screen, E-Ink displays can be used both indoors and outdoors. E-Paper displays in sizes from 13 inches upwards are therefore particularly suitable for use in manufacturing or public transport.

PRODUCTION LINE

Low power consumption: E-Ink is "bistable", which means that the screen display usually does not require a constant power supply. The display of the E-Paper-Labels remains legible even if there is no power supply. This is because power is only consumed when the content of the display changes.

Good readability: Even in bright sunlight, the displays are easy to read. In addition, the matte display prevents reflections or flickering, thus protecting the eyes of the viewer.

Very good viewing angle stability: Since the colour pigments of electronic ink are located directly behind the top layer, a high contrast is produced. As a result, the display can be read even at a very weak angle.

Although E-Ink displays are passive, i.e. non-glowing displays, there is the possibility of integrated backlighting. This way, our greyscale and full colour E-Paper Displays are ready for use during the day and nighttime.
