E Ink to Showcase How It's Creating Connected Experiences at CES 2018


E Ink Holdings, "E Ink" (8069.TW), the leading innovator of electronic ink technology will display its latest innovations in consumer electronics, architecture, healthcare, retail and fashion at CES (News - Alert) 2018 Jan. 9-11, 2018 in Las Vegas. E Ink will showcase how its solutions bring dynamic elements to generally static environments such as architecture and design, as well as discuss how its ePaper technology is being integrated into smart cities and connected devices.

Electronic paper displays from E Ink are well recognized as being the technology of choice for eReaders. Now these ePaper displays are also revolutionizing the digital signage, healthcare and retail industries as well. The company's industry leading technology is allowing product designers to leverage the power of AI to create bus signs that update in real time, electronic shelf labels that free retailers from updating paper price labels, and medical devices that empower better medical adherence. Solutions from E Ink allow developers to put displays in locations never before possible, enabling devices to visually communicate information in the growing world of IoT.

"As the world works to become more connected, E Ink plays an integral role in the development of smart, connected devices given its durable, rugged and low-power properties," said Paul Apen, chief strategy officer at E Ink. "E Ink is at the forefront of bringing digital transformation to a wide array of industries, and we're excited to showcase how we are delivering innovative products for a world that is becoming increasingly more connected."

In addition to the latest wearables, eReaders and tablets, technologies to be showcased include:

  • A DAZZLE wall - a replica of DAZZLE, the world's largest media façade on the San Diego International Airport parking garage, featuring 2,100 tiles of E Ink's Prism technology

  • A reconfigurable Retail Price Tag - a thin, batteryless price tag (News - Alert) containing Powercast's power harvesting technology that enables quick price changes using a typical handheld UHF RFID reader for wirelessly updating the display; Tags don't need batteries because they harvest enough power just from the RFID reader to operate perpetually
