EPaper Displays by Sharp – A groundbreaking development in energy-efficient digital signage technology

The ePaper display represents a groundbreaking advancement in the field of energy-efficient digital signage technology, as its power consumption for displaying content is a mere zero watts. Only a small amount of power is needed to change the content, making this ePaper signage innovation a significant step towards climate neutrality.

As a digital alternative to printed posters, the ePaper utilizes a full color spectrum to present static content that is permanently visible but may need to be updated regularly. Examples of applications include advertising boards at retail locations, menu boards, and information about allergens in retail and hospitality, as well as time displays and check-in and gate information in transportation. The ePaper technology is pioneering in terms of sustainability and user comfort, as the content is easily readable even in bright environments. Its paper-like appearance is gentle on the eyes, avoiding reflections and blue light exposure.

An integrated SoC ensures intelligent and future-proof operation. Content is provided through selected CMS partners, and very straightforward content management via USB, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth is also possible.

The lightweight ePaper display can be hung like a picture frame or set up freestanding in any orientation. It can be powered by batteries, eliminating the need for a power cable. Installation and operation require minimal effort.
