E-paper displays are increasingly being integrated into Internet of Things (IoT) devices for various applications such as smart home devices, wearable technology, and environmental sensors. These displays offer low-power, always-on capabilities, making them suitable for devices that require continuous display of information without draining battery life. With the growing adoption of IoT technology in diverse industries, the demand for e-paper displays as a low-power, high-visibility display solution is expected to rise. In June 2022, Boston-based company Modos has been developing a paper laptop to replace the LCD or OLED screen with a large electronic paper display. The company believes that these portable computers can give advantages to e-readers, such as long battery life, reduced eye strain, and greater visibility in direct sunlight because most laptop users primarily use their computers for text-focused jobs like word processing, spreadsheets, and email, where e-paper can solve the requirements.
E-paper displays are gaining traction in retail and digital signage applications due to their energy efficiency, readability in sunlight, and ability to update content remotely without the need for constant power supply. Retailers are leveraging e-paper displays for electronic shelf labels (ESLs), promotional signage, and dynamic pricing solutions, enhancing the customer experience and streamlining operations. As businesses seek more sustainable and cost-effective display solutions, e-paper displays offer a compelling alternative to traditional paper-based signage and electronic displays.
