Fujitsu Super Frontech Vision EP takes e-paper to new dimensions

[Alexander Turcic]

Pop quiz: What will you get when you take a bunch of engineers from Fujitsu Frontech Ltd. and mingle them together with a bunch from Fujitsu Laboratories Ltd? No, we are not talking about family planning here, but about the Super Frontech Vision EP, a gigantic multi-panel display boasting latest color electronic paper technology and wireless connectivity. The catch (why must there always be one?): You might just as well buy a car for the price of one of those puppies. From the press release:

This product is slim and compact display which integrates multiple color electronic papers. There are six models from 12-inch to 48-inch depending on number of [e-paper] panels integrated. Color electronic paper keeps a still image without power once drawn on the panel. Power is required only to redraw the image.

Should 48-inch (available at an affordable US$45,000) not be enough to decorate your bedroom wall, Fujitsu is also accepting custom orders for displays up to 120-inch. Just be prepared to sell your house, car, dump your significant other, and work twice the hours.
