E Ink Announces Deployment of Digital Paper Lecture Schedules by Artec Design


E Ink Holdings, "E Ink" (8069.TW), the leading innovator of electronic ink technology, today announced the deployment of E Ink digital paper displays by Artec Design at the largest university in Estonia, the University of Tartu. The devices will display daily lecture schedules at the University's recently opened Delta Center.

The 13.3-inch digital paper displays enable the University to update signage daily as lecture schedules are changed, offering students the most up-to-date information without the waste and time of swapping paper signage.

"This launch marks the exciting expansion of the applications for digital paper in the world of education," said Paul Apen, Chief Business & Operations Officer of E Ink. "From eReaders to eNotes and now lecture displays, digital paper provides all the readability benefits of traditional paper, with the sustainability of an electronic display."

The devices feature E Ink's Carta film, enabling lecture schedules to be displayed clearly and efficiently, with extremely low power requirements. Like all E Ink technology, this deployment leverages the inherent benefits of digital paper displays: paper-like readability with a wide viewing angle and bi-stability so power is only consumed when the display image is changed. Additionally, E Ink technology is light-reflective rather than emissive, removing light pollution from the equation and allowing for a sleek aesthetic.

"The deployment is a cornerstone for expanding Artec Design's ePaper applications beyond multilingual exhibitions at museums to wider indoor signage solutions," said Kaido Kevvai, CEO of Artec Design. "The applications are not limited to specific use-cases, as the devices are versatile and can display any content created by designers, whether it's custom typography, layouts, visuals or images."

The displays were developed by Artec with Power over Ethernet (PoE) as well as a Central Management Server (CMS). PoE is used for both data and power to reliably maintain the displays, while the CMS enables management of display content. The devices also feature an optional RFID/NFC and touch button support for local interaction with users, enabling the personalization of the contents shown, including campus maps, event promotion, safety information and more.
