我正在寻找一种电子墨水显示器(基于像素),它尽可能便宜,并且体积小巧,但仍是可以在一百毫秒内刷新的完全基于像素的显示器。
我所指的几乎是Aveso的“定制显示器”产品。但是它们是不可变的显示,即不是基于像素的。
显示器必须非常小-1厘米,理想情况下,它们可以与多头控制器配合使用。

在短时间内,我考虑过修改显示屏的想法。然后跟进e-Ink Corporation。他们是持有eInk IP的人。他们把我介绍给了一家知名的LCD制造公司PrimeView。(当我用谷歌搜索一些事实时,事实证明PVI现在已经收购了EInk。)
我可以将自己的方式介绍到一些数据表和定价数据中。恐怕对于一般的修补匠来说,效果并不理想。他们为每件显示器报价200.00美元。控制器为每件4.50(以样品数量计)。面板的批量生产报价为60.00 / pc。当然,后者的报价取决于数量-我怀疑亚马逊的定价会更好!(顺便说一句,这是为6英寸面板,在2007年12月前后引用的)
如果您真的很认真,他们确实提供了大约3,000美元的开发套件。
鉴于该技术仍是相对较新的技术,而且许多关键技术(相对于启用技术)都受到了很多专利保护,因此我们需要一段时间才能看到商品(通用)电子墨水显示器。
这是我对SeeedStudio电子墨水的经验。

Seeedstudio电子墨水是Arduino兼容的护罩。(但是,它与Arduino并不完全兼容!。请参见Seeedstudio论坛:http : //www.seeedstudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php? p=16432#p16432 )

Shield上实际上只有两个活动芯片,一个字符ROM和电子墨水驱动程序。
代码读取ROM以获取位模式,重新排列位,然后发送到E-ink驱动程序。
我无法在电子墨水显示器上找到任何制造商的名称,除非制造商被称为“良好显示器”!(这些是背面唯一的字样,还有零件号GDE021A1)(编辑:我只是再次搜索了零件号,这次它找到了制造商。这是好显示器!)
我的想法是,这对于正确的应用程序是完美的,我只需要找到该应用程序即可。

但是:它不像10x10mm那样小,并且可以肯定它没有那么快。但是至少现在价格要低得多。
Seeed Studio截至2013-04-16 WEST,提供Arduino 电子墨水显示屏护板,价格为49.90 USD。显示分辨率为172×72像素。PCB的占地面积为68×63 mm。从图片来看,显示组件的面积不到PCB的一半。
