Apple fans are eager to make their iPhones more stylish when they take them out. Think about it. If you integrate the E-INK screen into your favorite mobile phone shell, and achieve dual screen display, information and E-mail can be read directly through the E-ink screen, saving power and making it popular, why not? Let's take a look at this E-INK case.
The common e-paper book screen is mostly 6 inches. The Popplate phone case is equipped with a 4 inch screen, which uses the E-ink electronic screen used in e-books such as Kindle.
Connect it through the lightning interface of iPhone 5. As e-paper consumes low power, it can minimize iPhone battery consumption and display photos, documents and various notifications at all times. This function is not only exclusive to Popplate software, but also its open API allows third-party software to use E-link screens, which further improves the playability of this E-link.
Popplate adopts a new generation of E-ink screen made of plastic, which is more flexible and has better damage resistance. Unlike the E-ink screen in the past, the back is made of glass, which makes it fragile. In addition, this phone case uses the accelerometer of iPhone, so it does not need to use the front touch screen. Clicking the back can also achieve picture switching. According to the developer, the latest display accessories will be used in the future. Under the protection of a layer of plastic template, the picture will not be worn, which ensures the performance of the phone case to a certain extent. In addition, it is possible to realize the progress of color screen in 2014.
In addition to displaying photos, Popplate can also display maps and to-do lists. You can convert in different modes by double clicking the screen. It can also act as a message reminder to display system alerts in iOS at any time. Since the E-ink screen will not turn off, when your phone is asleep, you can view SMS, email, Instagram updates or other application message alerts without restarting.
At present, Greg Moon and Yasha Behzadi, the two inventors of Popplate, have received angel investors' investment. They hope to raise 150000 dollars on IndieGoGo to successfully produce the product. The top 500 subscribers can buy the protective case at the price of 79 dollars. After the official sale, the price should be 99 dollars or more. The funding deadline is January 15, 2013. So far, 45000 dollars have been raised. Once the target is achieved and mass production is achieved, the return of investors is likely to be considerable. If successful, we will be able to see PopSLATE go on sale in May 2013.
