演讲简介

Reflective ePaper displays offerunique advantages (paper-like appearance, sunlight readability, low energy),enabling new applications beyond eReaders. After having achieved widespread usein achromatic reading devices, reflective color is the next frontier. Thisseminar will first introduce the audience into the basic optical principles ofreflective displays, and map current avenues of making them colorful. Thesecond part of the seminar gives an overview of how to use newly developedindustry standards to correctly evaluate the optical and color performance ofreflective displays in realistic ambient viewing environments. This quantifiesthe fundamental advantages of reflective vs. emissive displays in terms ofpaper similarity and eye safety.
