E-paper displays can be customized to accomodate any application, such as public outdoor signage. These displays are an eco-friendly alternative to using paper, which usually get strewn when placed outdoors. E-paper signages offer unique solutions that are unmatched compared to other displays. The display itself uses zero power to display, making it ideal for outdoor public signage solutions. When the display changes the image, the power consumption increases to approximately 18W for about 6 seconds. Since image changes on these displays are typically few and far between, the power it takes to deliver the image on the display stays very low. Although e-paper displays come in sizes up to 42 inches, they are scalable with tiling.
How Does E-Paper Differ from LED and LCD Displays?
E-paper displays offer a higher resolution than both LED and LCD displays, at about <0.3 mm. In contrast to LED and LCD displays, e-paper displays are reflective and sunlight readable, making it an excellent solution for outdoor applications. Night viewing options are also available with additional lighting. Due to its low power requirements, e-paper displays are monochrome, opposed to LED and LCD displays, which are both full color.
