For months, E-Ink, the manufacturer of electronic ink displays, has been trying to launch new products and stop depending on the eReader market. This has led to new products coming out with this type of screen and we are seeing more and more devices with electronic ink.
E-Ink delegates have indicated that next year, the company will be dedicated to mass production and sale of small e-ink labels how much they are promoting. This product has been used for a long time by supermarkets, travel companies and other related companies to improve sales or control shipments or luggage at airports.
Many of us already know about these new uses that E-Ink is presenting, but what the company reported goes beyond a simple advertisement. On the one hand is the fact that his production will increase to 40 million labels, a very high figure that the manufacturer supports well but that could be incompatible with the production of new electronic ink screens.
E-Ink might have trouble producing new displays if you produce these e-ink labels
On the other hand, a few months ago, 80% of E-Ink production depended on eReaders, now the figure has dropped to 70%, so it seems that the new E-Ink products are attracting attention and reaching the end user.
But nothing has been said about the new electronic ink displays so either 2017 will continue to be a year with Carta Technology Or the new screens are already created and ready for distribution, so in 2017 we would have new eReaders with changes to the screen.
This has not been specified and it is the great doubt that it causes, but what we know is that next 2017 we will read more in electronic ink, at least when we go to make the purchase.
