Business Uses of Colour E-Paper

Samsung Colour E-Paper (EMDX model), the company’s ultra low power display, will make its debut at InfoComm. This groundbreaking full-color e-paper signage seamlessly combines digital ink with cutting-edge technology, making it a viable alternative to analogue or paper promotional materials.

With its high visibility signs, the innovative solution provides businesses with an eco-friendly substitute for conventional promotional methods. Compared to standard digital signs, the Samsung Colour E-Paper uses substantially less electricity when changing images, operating at 0.00W when showing a static image. The Colour E-Paper may also be remotely controlled by managers, who can create schedules with automated wake-up and sleep hours to save energy.

Red, yellow, green, blue, white, and black are the six colours per pixel on the 32-inch screen, which has a 60,000-color gamut and QHD (2,560 x 1,440) resolution. Due to its small weight of 2.9kg and wide 17.9mm, it may be put without the need for additional mounts in a variety of places, including tables, ceilings, and walls. Due of its versatility, the Colour E-Paper can be used by companies and marketers to lower operating expenses by engaging consumers in numerous locations.

In order to facilitate the creation of content for various verticals, the VXT CMS Canvas also provides a range of templates that are tailored for E-paper displays.

Two USB-C type connectors, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth support, and data transfer are all supported by the Colour E-Paper. Together with 8GB of flash memory, a VESA standard wall mount compatibility, and a replaceable bezel that lets users customise the frame’s colour, these features provide consumers improved connectivity, a wider range of customisation choices, and versatile mounting possibilities.

In-store advertising, indoor signage, and the replacement of paper posters are among the applications for which the Colour E-Paper panel makes use of the cutting-edge E Ink Spectra 6 technology. Improved marketing and advertising performance is achieved through the use of an upgraded colour imaging algorithm and an increased colour spectrum.

According to Dr. FY Gan, President of E Ink Holdings, “We’re excited to announce our partnership with Samsung to unveil the innovative 32-inch E Ink Spectra 6 for the signage market.” Samsung dedication to a better future with display solutions is demonstrated by our collaboration. Through the integration of Samsung’s signage knowledge with E Ink’s state-of-the-art colour e-Paper technology, Samsung can create low-power colour displays that transform digital promotion and communication while strengthening sustainability initiatives.
