Electronic Paper — Paper Route

According to the company, Plastic Logic is developing relationships and partnerships to work the displays into actual products.

In 2005’s original spate of proof of concept announcements, Polymer Vision, a spin-off of Philips Research, demonstrated prototypes of the Concept Readius roll-able display. The monochrome, 320x240-pixel, 5˝ Readius is the first prototype of a functional electronic document reader whose display can be unrolled to a size larger than the device itself. The Readius uses E Ink’s bi-stable electrophoretic display, and is based on Polymer Vision’s own rollable display design. The company is working on a 7˝ model, which it believes will be the optimal size for the mainstream market.
