Abstract
Abstract— With the rise of electrophoretic‐display media from several sources, the world is opening up for new uses of electronic displays. Where “immersive reading” used to be a task strictly reserved for paper, displays can now fulfill that role. Many challenges still remain, such as full‐color photograph‐like performance and video speeds. However, in view of recent accomplishments showing near‐video‐speed switching and potential for full color, after electrophoretic displays obtain a slice of the reading market, application of these developments will take us a significant step towards full‐color animated paper‐like displays. The developments that have led to the presence of electronic paper in the market today will be described, and developments that are about to happen will be discussed.
