E Ink
In addition to its paper-thin package, a typical Ink-In-Motion display can animate continuously for up to 6 months using just two AA batteries. These displays are ideal for high-impact POP signs in retail environments where access to power outlets are often limited. In addition to long battery life, these displays can be easily viewed from all angles and under virtually any lighting condition.

- collaboration between computer science and visual art
- campus guide with location sensitive paper (ooh, it hurts to think about that)
- pure presentation
