Interesting to see Lenovo investing in Clearink. https://www.clearinkdisplays.com/len...vests-clearink

An interview is pretty fresh of Maria Vetrano of SEMI (global industry association representing the electronics manufacturing supply chain) to Sri Peruvemba, CMO of CLEARink.
Here is an abridgement of the most salient statements: [C]olor and video [...are] now possible through electrophoretic total internal reflection (eTIR [or] "ePaper 2.0") – a low-power technology that allows devices to work for days instead of hours. eTIR [...] uses the charged particles in a fluid to modulate the total internal reflected light from the optical structures incorporated into its novel reflector film. [...] Implementation is pretty much the same as with the LCD or OLED displays currently in use. The interfaces, connections and form factors remain form-, fit-, function-compatible. Only the software/waveforms and drive voltages will change/reduce. This allows the manufacture of our tech., ePaper 2.0, on the old LCD lines that are already in use. You can literally go back and forth between ePaper 2.0 and LCD on a day-to-day basis. [...] Success requires developing the ecosystem of subcomponent suppliers and peripheral technology providers (like touch and front lights). Partnering with the display fabs that can mass-produce your technology is another important step. With most emerging technologies, the pursuit of the right customer is the bigger challenge, but for us it has been getting the product into production. Fortunately, we already have customers that have invested in the company and have committed to product volume, so they get early access to our technology. Now just months away from deploying our eTIR technology as ePaper 2.0, we welcome partnership inquiries as we seek to implement eTIR across a range of previously unserved and underserved display markets. The interview is linked to a forthcoming presentation of Sri Peruvemba, "ePaper 2.0 — Creating New Markets", at FLEX/MSTC on Tuesday, February 19 at 2:45 pm.

Wow. Is all this really that near? Hopefully soon we will see a large, eye-safe monitor based on this technology. Maybe Dasung will pay attention to CLEARink? Oh, how I would like to buy a large (21-24 inch) monitor, working in reflected light and capable of showing video.

No
It have been "near" for 10 years, still nothing in the street and still nothing announced or even decent prototypes. Don't expect accessible price wise color e-paper with high dpi enough to read books on the street for at least 5 years, monitors? Probably 10 or never. |

Some have a belief that forthcoming technology implementation is not superior than showroom prototypes. Others call such idea, synthetically, unsubstantiated BS.
A new entry in perplexing arguments seems to be that since nothing patently critical has happened up to now even in spite of near misses, then events are far away. Which means, some people are not acquainted with the concept of death. Yes. Eh? ...Possibly? Quote:
Again: I fail to see how Dasung can be high in the list of relevant players. If controllers for eTIR are not that different from LCD, then the production of monitors can be done somehow effortlessly through any mainstream factory... |

CLEARink announced partnership with display manufacturer Tianma to produce the eTIR displays and kits.
Under the partnership framework, Tianma will develop TFT backplane and module assemblies for CLEARink’s next generation ePaper displays for tablets and other applications [...]
Tianma has been a manufacturing and technology leader in small to medium size displays for over three decades. [...] CLEARink’s ePaper 2.0 technology has been trial manufactured and tested and the company will soon ship sample kits to select customers to commence the next phase of design |

They stated 100hrs of video or 150 of "reading" (interpolated) with the old specs, which may become 133hrs of video or 300 of "reading" with the new specs. So it is more like, very tentatively, 200 hours of mixed use (60% active and 40% static or simply the geometric mean). Duly: with an undefined average battery (3000mAh?), an undefined average board etc. EDIT: Although I am not sure about how optimistically the board consumption was estimated: I guess I would already be impressed if a good board lasted for 50 hours of mixed use without a display attached, with a single charge...

This week (12-16 May) will be the Society for Information Display (SID)’s DisplayWeek 2019. CLEARink will be there showcasing the ePaper 2.0 reflective displays.

Price should be very competitive (modification of standard processes).
Quality: that's probably what most of us are waiting to assess. In a few days we should get some documented demonstration out of the Display Week. |
