Yesterday, electronic ink was a matter of e-readers, the famous e-book reading lights. Today, this type of display will be even more present in daily life by integrating into an accessory that you wear every day: the watch. Not a watch has been equipped with this technology before, seiko solar atomic is the company that created the first electronic ink shows. If the ink is also popular, because it offers a very good display while consuming little electricity. seiko solar atomic has designed three styles of watches with a resolution of 300 dots per inch, the equivalent of 80,000 pixels on four levels of gray. Compared to conventional LCD displays and displays the usual electronic ink is a clear advantage. This type of display is based on said electrophoretic microcapsules with black and white particles suspended in a clear liquid. Another detail not to be overlooked, these watches run on seiko solar atomic energy and have a range of nine months without sun exposure. They are synchronized by radio waves with an seiko solar atomic clock with an antenna. These watches cost € 800 and unpublished, should be remembered, do not read e-books. The watchmaker seiko solar atomic invented a new Manir to display the time with active matrix EPD technology. Look at the time from every angle. Seiko Watch Corp society. has developed a revolutionary new display system, which is incorporated in the first watch in the world active matrix EPD. Three models of the watch will be offered. Each has a detailed design and a high-resolution screen as clear as a television screen art. With this screen with a resolution of 300 dots per inch which provides a viewing angle of 180 degrees, the new show "is the future of the digital time," said a statement from the company. EPD is an abbreviation for "Electrophoretic display" (electrophoretic display), and refers to the method of using electronic ink - owned by seiko solar atomic - for display of the watch. The electronic ink is mainly composed of millions of microcapsules, each measuring the diameter of a hair. Each microcapsule contains negatively charged white particles and positively charged black particles suspended in a clear liquid. When a negative electric field is applied, the white particles move to the top of the microcapsule, and then become visible to the user: the surface of the screen appears blank. By reversing the process, we can make the black particles appear at the top of the capsule. In addition to this revolutionary display, the watch continuously synchronizes with seiko solar atomic clocks worldwide through radio waves, and is of unprecedented accuracy. Other Japanese watch manufacturers have incorporated this technology to their radio hits, such as Casio and Citizen. While the Chinese market is booming, Citizen has built a broadcast antenna 250 meters in the province of Henan, which began broadcasting in June 2007. The new Seiko watch works with a solar battery that recharges by itself and can last up to nine months without exposure to light. The geek can amount to some observers a espce with its own codes, but also a particular language. If you also want to know if you have some knowledge in this area, do the knowledge test . . . . . .
