Japan R & D e-paper to deal with price increases

You can carry it with you, use it repeatedly, bend it any way you like, download data, view information, and display a variety of colors through the Internet. Not long ago, at a high-tech exhibition in Tokyo, Japan, electronic paper incorporating the latest technologies received extensive attention. .
    Due to its low energy consumption and adaptability to various reading environments, electronic paper has always been regarded as an effective way to replace traditional paper and save energy.
    Take it over and over again
    According to Yoshiaki Yoshiaki, director of e-paper development at Fujitsu, “E-paper will be a new must-have item in people’s lives. Business people can conveniently place it in a bag. It will change people’s lives like a mobile phone. Currently, e-paper is mainly Applied to handheld electronic newspapers, e-book readers, advertising street signs and other fields."
    Compared with traditional paper, the advantages of this electronic paper introduced by Japanese companies are obvious. The holder can write and read freely at the top, write it wrong, and erase it. This kind of paper can adapt to various reading environments, and there is no problem of reflection, blurring, etc. under sunlight. It also has the same visibility as prints and remains displayed after power is turned off.
    In addition, this e-paper also has green features that can be carried around and used repeatedly. It looks more like a thin piece of plastic that can be bent at will - of course, it cannot be folded into a paper plane.
    Experts analyze that Japan's technology for making traditional papers is famous. Now, Japanese companies have integrated high-tech elements and actively researched and developed electronic paper. Its fundamental purpose is to cope with the increasing raw material costs, energy exhaustion, and the proliferation of printed materials.
    U.S. e-ink company, which makes Sony readers, claims that consumers will eventually have to use energy-saving technologies when paper and fuel prices continue to climb.
    The company's Asia-Pacific vice president, Yukio Kuwata, said: "As big countries like India, Russia, Brazil and China, with the development of the economy, the amount of paper consumed has also increased substantially. Among them, the cost of A4 paper has increased by 20 %-30%. When people discard pulp paper, electronic paper will shine."
    With wireless network capabilities
    In fact, the concept of electronic paper has a long history. A long time ago, people came up with this very attractive idea: use electronic technology to produce products like traditional paper, and avoid the environmental crisis of deforestation caused by the production of traditional paper. The biggest advantage of electronic paper is that it can access information freely and it can be used repeatedly. It is not only environmentally friendly, but also has the advantages of low energy consumption and large data storage capacity.
    Electronic paper is a type of paper-based media product that is classified within the paper category. E-paper can have a wireless network function, wherever you go, you can download data via the Internet, read a lot of information, and enjoy reading, no matter where you are. In addition, using the Internet to browse the news on the computer, the eyes will get tired after a long time, and the electronic paper will not bring this kind of trouble.
    It abandons the disadvantage of using a network to carry a bulky computer and incorporates the lightweight form of traditional paper media, undoubtedly becoming a new type of product that combines the advantages of current paper media and Internet media.
    As the most ideal substitute and successor of paper in the future, electronic paper is receiving more and more attention from people. We can boldly predict that several years later, as more and more advanced electronic paper technologies emerge and become more widely used, electronic paper will occupy a huge market. It will replace many existing storage and reading media, become a common item in people's lives, and gradually change our lives.
