There are a few other competitors similar to Motion Display. Check out Neolux and Midori Mark. </p> http://www.epapercentral.com/forums/general-discussion/e-paper-and-textile/#post-417 Wed, 24 Jun 2009 13:41:59 +0000 thella 417@http://www.epapercentral.com/forums/ <p>thanks for your responses guys. Very helpful. I have contacted motiondisplay about it and they have reported that it is definitely possible. </p> http://www.epapercentral.com/forums/general-discussion/e-paper-and-textile/#post-411 Tue, 23 Jun 2009 02:35:44 +0000 admin 411@http://www.epapercentral.com/forums/ <p>This might be possible with simplistic implementation of E Ink's Ink-in-motion technology. it would have to be added to a thicker region on the garment - basically an area that is as thick as the "esquire 25th anniversary" cover. I believe "motion display" (based out of sweden) is experimenting with this now - <a href="http://www.motiondisplay.com/." rel="nofollow">http://www.motiondisplay.com/.</a> keysersoze is right, it will be expensive. </p> http://www.epapercentral.com/forums/general-discussion/e-paper-and-textile/#post-406 Mon, 22 Jun 2009 17:31:00 +0000 keysersoze 406@http://www.epapercentral.com/forums/ <p>At the moment it isn't feasible because current screens on the market aren't able to be flexible enough. Hopefully however there will be some new technologies advancing the backplane design because it is this which needs to be mounted on some support meaning the screen isn;t flexible. The frontplane should be flexible though.</p> <p>I would imagine something like a bag would be first and clothing sometime after - I imagine that it might be a bit uncomfortable in clothing entirely made from e-paper as it won't "breathe" but patches could certainly be done.</p> <p>Costwise you'd expect them to be expensive at the moment, but hopefully as more companies come to the market the price will be driven down.</p> <p>If you haven't seen it, there is one fashion item which you can buy at the moment - there is a watch with an e-ink screen. </p> http://www.epapercentral.com/forums/general-discussion/e-paper-and-textile/#post-405 Mon, 22 Jun 2009 14:10:21 +0000 thella 405@http://www.epapercentral.com/forums/ <p>Would it be possible to integrate e-paper with textile to form an some sort e-paper outer material for clothing and bags? Or isn't e-paper flexible enough for these kind of applications? I've seen some sort of e-paper jacket somewhere, but i don't know if it was very comfortable.</p> <p>And cost-wise? Any suggestions/opinions? </p>
