Vim li cas E-Ink Tus Nqi Nws Nqi Li Cas
E Ink Holdings, lub tuam txhab Taiwanese, tswj hwm95% ntawm lub ntiaj teb no e-paper zaub ua lag luam. Cia tus lej ntawd poob rau hauv. Txhua Kindle. Txhua Kobo. Txhua reMarkable. Txhua Boox. Txhua Supernote. Txhua lub txee hluav taws xob hauv txhua lub khw muag khoom, txhua lub tsev muag tshuaj, txhua lub tsev khaws khoom. Tag nrho cov ntawm lawv siv E Ink panels.
Qhov no tsis yog kev lag luam dominance. Qhov no yog monopoly.
Lub tuam txhab keeb kwm keeb kwm taug qab mus rau MIT's Media Lab hauv xyoo 1990, qhov twg cov kws tshawb fawb tau tsim cov tub ntxhais microencapsulated electrophoretic technology. Lub tuam txhab khiav tawm, E Ink Corporation, tau txais los ntawm Taiwan's Prime View International hauv 2009. Peb xyoos tom qab ntawd, hauv 2012, E Ink nqus SiPix, nws tsuas yog tus neeg sib tw tseem ceeb thaum lub sijhawm. Qhov tshwm sim yog ib qho khoom siv nrog ib qho chokepoint.
Thaum koj yuav ib qho e- ntawv ntaus ntawv los ntawm ib lub chaw tsim khoom, koj cov nyiaj thaum kawg ntws mus rau ib lub tuam txhab hauv Hsinchu, Taiwan.
Patents ua rau monopoly ruaj.Cov tub ntxhais microencapsulated electrophoretic zaub patent, tau thov rau xyoo 1996, tau tas sijhawm. Hauv txoj kev xav, qhov no yuav tsum tau qhib lub qhov dej nyab. Txhua tus neeg yuav tsum muaj peev xwm tsim tau e- ntawv qhia siv cov thev naus laus zis yooj yim.
Tab sis E Ink tsis tau so thaum lub sijhawm patent - tiv thaiv xyoo ntawd.
Lub tuam txhab siv nyiaj kwv yees li$ 150 lab txhua xyoo ntawm R & D- ib nrab - cov hluas feem pua ntawm cov nyiaj tau los. Rau cov chaw tsim khoom lag luam, qhov no yog qhov siab tshaj plaws. Samsung Display, ua haujlwm ntawm qhov loj dua, siv ib feem me me ntawm cov nyiaj tau los ntawm kev tshawb fawb. E Ink's R & D siv zog sib tw cov tuam txhab tshuaj.
Qhov kev nqis peev no tsim cov ntaub ntawv patent txuas ntxiv. Xim lim arrays. Faster refresh waveforms. Plastic substrate yooj yooj yim. Txhim kho qhov sib piv piv. Tsawg- ua haujlwm kub. Txhua tiam ntawm kev siv tshuab coj cov cuab yeej txawj ntse tshiab. Txhua yam tshiab ntxiv lwm txheej rau lub fortress.
Thawj patent tas sij hawm hloov tsis muaj dab tsi. Lub fortress tsuas loj hlob tshiab phab ntsa.
Txhua tus neeg sib tw sim nkag mus rau hauv kev lag luam ntsib kev xaiv: daim ntawv tso cai E Ink's thev naus laus zis (thiab lees txais lawv lub hwj chim tus nqi), txhim kho lwm txoj hauv kev uas taug kev ncig ntau txhiab tus patents (kim thiab sij hawm-siv), lossis lees tias lawv cov khoom lag luam yuav qis dua (thiab yog li kev lag luam tsis zoo).
Kuj tseem muaj lub voj voog tsis zoo ntawm kev ua si uas tau txais txiaj ntsig rau tus neeg sawv cev. E Ink tag nrho cov nyiaj tau los txhua xyoo ho nyob ib ncig ntawm $ 1 nphom. Uas suab zoo li ntau txog thaum koj muab piv rau lub ntiaj teb cov zaub vaj huam sib luag ua lag luam, uas tshaj $ 150 nphom txhua xyoo. E- ntawv nyob ib feem ntawm ib feem ntawm kev lag luam zaub.
Kev lag luam me txhais tau tias cov khoom me me. E Ink ua haujlwm fab uas me me piv rau qhov loj heev Gen 10.5 chaw uas BOE thiab Samsung siv rau LCD thiab OLED ntau lawm. Cov ntim me me txhais tau tias tsis muaj kev lag luam ntawm nplai. Tus nqi ruaj khov ntawm kev tsim khoom- chav huv, khoom siv, cov neeg ua haujlwm engineering- tau kis mus rau tsawg dua chav nyob.
Tsis muaj kev lag luam ntawm nplai txhais tau tias tus nqi nyob siab. Ib tug 6-inch e-ink panel nqi $30–$60. Lub 6-inch LCD vaj huam sib luag nqi $3-$8. Cov txheej txheem tsim khoom sib txawv, tab sis qhov sib txawv ntawm qhov sib txawv tsim qhov kev txiav txim-ntawm-qhov loj ntawm tus nqi sib txawv.
Tus nqi siab txwv tsis pub txais yuav. Cov neeg siv khoom saib e- cov khoom siv number case, saib tus nqi tshaj li LCD lwm qhov, thiab feem ntau xaiv cov kev xaiv pheej yig dua. Cov tuam txhab lag luam txwv lawv cov e- cov kab khoom lag luam vim tias kev lag luam me dua.
Txwv tsis pub txais yuav ua rau lub lag luam me. Thiab lub voj voog txuas ntxiv mus.
Qhov no yog tus kheej - txhawb nqa ntxiab uas tsuas yog tawg yog tias ib tus neeg nqis peev ntau txhiab daus las kom ncav cuag qhov ntsuas - lossis yog tias kev hloov pauv thev naus laus zis loj ua rau kev tsim khoom tam sim no tsis cuam tshuam. Tsis tau tshwm sim. Tsis zoo li yuav tshwm sim.
Kev sib piv LCD
Tus nqi sib txawv ntawm e- number case thiab LCD tsim nyog tau txais kev saib xyuas meej, vim nws qhia tau hais tias qhov kev cuam tshuam ntawm e- ntawv nqi tau dhau los.
Ntawm 6-inch loj- tus e- tus qauv nyeem ntawv- LCD vaj huam sib luag nqi $3 txog $8. Lub vaj huam sib luag e-ink raug nqi $ 30 txog $ 60. Qhov ntawd yog ib qho8 × txog 10 × hwmrau e- ntawv. Ob lub technologies yog mature. Ob qho tib si yog tsim los ntawm qhov ntsuas (txawm tias sib txawv loj heev). Tus e- tus cwj mem premium tsis tuaj yeem piav qhia los ntawm kev tsim khoom nyuaj ib leeg.
Ntawm 10 ntiv tes, LCD panels khiav $ 8 txog $ 15. E- cov ntawv luam ntawv raug nqi $100 txog $180. Qhov piv tau zuj zus mus10 × 12 ×. Koj tuaj yeem yuav kaum lub LCD vaj huam sib luag rau tus nqi ntawm ib qho e-ink panels.
Cov chav kawm 25-inch loj qhia qhov tsis txaus ntseeg tag nrho. Ib tug 25-inch LCD vaj huam sib luag- yam nyob rau hauv ib tug yooj yim chaw ua hauj lwm saib-tus nqi $40 rau $80. Lub vaj huam sib luag 25-nti e-ink raug nqi $ 800 txog $ 1,200. Qhov ntawd yog ib15 × txog 20 × hwm.
Ib qho tiav 25-inch LCD saib muag rau qis dua $ 100 ntawm cov khw muag khoom, suav nrog lub vaj huam sib luag, cov khoom siv hluav taws xob, cov khoom siv, cov khoom siv hluav taws xob, thiab cov nyiaj tau los. Ib tug tiav 25-nti e-ink saib muag rau $ 2,000 lossis ntau dua.
Cov cuab yeej sib txawv, yog. E-tus number case yuav tsum muaj qhov tseeb waveform tiam. Cov txheej txheem tsim khoom siv microencapsulation ntau dua li cov kua siv lead ua kua. Yields yuav qis dua, tolerances tighter.
Tab sis yog lub tshuab 15 × rau 20 × ntau dua? Puas yog 15 × rau 20 × kim dua los tsim khoom ntawm qhov sib npaug?
Tsis yog. Tus nqi sib txawv tsis yog los ntawm kev siv tshuab nkaus xwb. Nws yog justified los ntawm kev ua lag luam qauv. Thaum ib lub tuam txhab tswj cov khoom siv thiab ntsib tsis muaj kev sib tw, tus nqi cuam tshuam kev lag luam lub zog, tsis yog tus nqi tsim khoom.
Xim Technology: Kaleido, Gallery, thiab Spectra
Xim e-ink tau tuaj txog, tab sis nyob rau hauv ntau yam flavors nrog ntau yam txawv txawv thiab tus nqi ntsiab lus.
Kaleido
Kaleidosawv cev rau E Ink pawg-kev ua lag luam xim. Cov thev naus laus zis tso cov xim lim array (CFA) hla tus qauv dub-thiab-dawb e- txheej number case-conceptually zoo ib yam li LCD qhia ua xim, txawm tias lub hauv paus pixel technology txawv kiag li. Qhov tshwm sim:4,096 xim ntawm 150 PPIxim daws teeb meem, nrog rau hauv qab monochrome txheej tseem xa 300 PPI rau dub- thiab - cov ntsiab lus dawb. Cov ntawv tseem ntse vim nws ua tiav ntawm kev daws teeb meem tag nrho. Cov duab xim tshwm sim me ntsis muted thiab qis dua - daws teeb meem vim lawv tau lim los ntawm CFA.
Cov nqi hloov tshiab tseem pom zoo rau kev nyeem ntawv- piv rau cov vaj huam sib luag monochrome. Koj yuav tsis pom qhov qeeb qeeb thaum tig nplooj ntawv lossis scrolling los ntawm cov ntsiab lus xim.
Kev ua lag luam- tawm yog muaj tiag. Cov xim zoo li ntxuav tawm piv rau LCD lossis OLED. Saturation yog txwv. 150 PPI xim daws teeb meem txhais tau tias cov ntsiab lus zoo xim zoo nkaus li muag me ntsis. Lub hnub ci ncaj qha nyeem tau-e- tus cwj mem tus cwj pwm tua neeg- yog qhov txo qis vim tias cov xim lim absorbs lub teeb.
Kaleido 3 modules raug nqi kwv yees50-80% ntaudua li sib npaug monochrome panels. Lub 7-nti Kaleido 3 vaj huam sib luag yuav raug nqi $ 50- $ 70 qhov twg lub vaj huam sib luag monochrome raug nqi $ 30- $ 40. Tus nqi yog qhov tseem ceeb tab sis tsis txwv, uas yog vim li cas Kaleido tau tshwm sim hauv cov neeg siv khoom xws li Kobo Libra Xim thiab ntau yam xim Boox qauv.
Gallery 3
Gallery 3yog ib txoj hauv kev sib txawv, thiab nws tswj hwm tus nqi sib txawv. Tsis txhob lim lub teeb dawb los ntawm cov xim arrays, Gallery 3 siv plaub -pigment system-cyan, magenta, daj, thiab dawb- ntim rau hauv txhua lub microcapsule. Txhua pixel muaj tag nrho plaub cov xim, uas tuaj yeem xaiv tau txav mus rau qhov pom los ntawm cov kab hluav taws xob sib txawv.
Tsis muaj xim lim yuav tsum tau. Qhov tshwm sim: kwv yees li50,000 xim ntawm tag nrho 300 PPIdaws teeb meem thoob plaws tag nrho cov zaub. Cov duab xim yog qhov pom tseeb dua li Kaleido. Cov thev naus laus zis mus txog qhov koj yuav hu ua "zoo txaus" xim luam tawm rau ntau qhov kev siv.
Kev lag luam - tawm yog ceev. Tsiv plaub hom xim sib txawv rau cov haujlwm meej yuav siv sijhawm. Qhov puv - xim zoo tuaj yeem siv sijhawm txog 1.5 vib nas this. Fast refresh hom muaj tab sis txi cov xim raug. Koj tsis saib video ntawm Gallery 3 zaub. Koj tsis txawm scrolling smoothly los ntawm ib daim ntawv xim.
Gallery 3 panels yog tshwj tseg rau cov ntawv thov hwm. E Ink tsis tshaj tawm tus nqi, thiab cov khoom tiav siv Gallery 3 tsis tshua tawg tawm cov nqi vaj huam sib luag. Tab sis cov ntaub ntawv pov thawj pom tseeb hauv cov nqi muag khoom: xim e-cov ntsiav tshuaj siv Gallery 3 hais kom ua $500–$800 tus nqi tshaj li cov monochrome sib npaug nrog cov yam ntxwv zoo ib yam. Ib reMarkable 2 raug nqi $450. Ib qho piv txwv Gallery 3 xim khoom raug nqi $ 900 lossis ntau dua.
Spectra 6
Thiab ces muajSpectra 6, uas lub hom phiaj ntawm kev ua lag luam sib txawv kiag li: kos npe thiab muag khoom muag. Cov thev naus laus zis siv rau -xim tso zis los ntawm plaub- pigment microcup architecture, optimized rau loj- hom ntawv qhia uas hloov tsis tu ncua. Xav tias lub khw muag khoom noj khoom haus cov paib, cov ntaub ntawv hauv tshav dav hlau, cov ntawv pov thawj hauv tsev cia puav pheej - cov ntawv thov uas koj xav tau xim, qhov loj me, thiab xoom lub zog ntawm kev hloov tshiab. Vaj huam sib luag qhov ntau thiab tsawg ncav cuag 75 ntiv tes hauv 2025. Cov nqi khiav mus rau ntau txhiab daus las. Kev muag khoom tshwm sim tshwj xeeb los ntawm B2B raws nrog kev sib cog lus, kev cog lus ntim, thiab kev pabcuam kev cai sib koom ua ke.

Dab tsi tshwm sim tom ntej
Kev kwv yees yav tom ntej yog kev phom sij. Kev kwv yees yav tom ntej ntawm kev lag luam monopoly- tswj kev lag luam yog ob npaug. Tab sis tej yam tiam sis zoo li yuav.
Nyob ze -Lub Sijhawm (1–2 Xyoo)
Hauv xyoo tom ntej lossis ob xyoos, cov nqi vaj huam sib luag xim yuav poob qis dua li Kaleido 3 cov nplais ntau lawm. Cov thev naus laus zis tau paub tab txaus rau kev tsim khoom loj, thiab kev sib tw ntawm cov tuam txhab tsim khoom yuav tsum tsim qee tus nqi siab. Loj - hom ntawv qhia saum toj 25 ntiv tes yuav nkag siab dua - ntim ntau lawm. Lub 25.3- nti saib tam sim no ntawm kev ua lag luam yog qhov tseem ceeb ntawm tes- tsim cov khoom lag luam zoo. Raws li ntau lawm standardizes, tus nqi yuav poob 10-20%. Lub khw muag khoom hluav taws xob daim ntawv lo txuas ntxiv nthuav dav sai, ua rau tag nrho qhov kev thov rau e{15}} number case panels. Qhov no yog xov xwm zoo rau yav tom ntej thev naus laus zis, txawm hais tias ESL txoj kev loj hlob feem ntau tau txais txiaj ntsig zoo ntawm cov vaj huam sib luag me me ntau dua li cov neeg siv khoom siv.
Tsis muaj kev cuam tshuam tus nqi tseem ceeb yuav tsum tau cia siab rau hauv lub sijhawm no. E Ink's monopoly tseem ruaj ntseg. Manufacturing peev yuav siv sij hawm ntau xyoo los ua kom tiav. Tsis muaj dab tsi nyob ze - lub sij hawm qab ntug hem qhov xwm txheej quo.
Nruab nrab-Lub Sij Hawm (3–5 Xyoo)
Hauv peb lub xyoos tom ntej, cov patents tseem ceeb ntxiv yuav tas sij hawm, txoj hauv kev qhib lub sijhawm rau kev sib tw. Seb leej twg yuav siv cov kev qhib no tseem tsis paub meej.
Suav sib twnthuav tawm qhov tseeb tshaj plaws kev hem thawj rau E Ink txoj kev tswj hwm. Guangzhou OED tau tsim cov thev naus laus zis thev naus laus zis rau xyoo nrog kev ua lag luam tsis muaj kev vam meej. BOE- lub ntiaj teb cov chaw tsim khoom loj tshaj plaws - tau nqis peev hauv DES (Digital Electrophoretic System) thev naus laus zis uas tuaj yeem muaj peev xwm sib tw nrog E Ink qhov kev muab.
Yog tias cov neeg sib tw no ncav cuag kev ua lag luam muaj txiaj ntsig - loj yog tias - tus nqi tuaj yeem poob 20-30% vim tias cov tuam txhab tsim khoom tau txais kev sib tham txog kev siv zog. Kev sib tw tsis tas yuav ntes feem ntau ntawm kev lag luam los cuam tshuam tus nqi; lub tsuas muaj nyob ntawm ib tug credible lwm txoj kev hloov cov kev sib tham dynamic.
Flexible e-cov nqi ntawv yuav tsum txo qis raws li cov txheej txheem tsim khoom loj. Cov vaj huam sib luag yooj yim tam sim no hais kom cov nqi them tseem ceeb tshaj iav khov -cov duab rov qab. Cov nqi them nqi no tuaj yeem txo qis raws li qhov ntsuas ntau lawm.
Unknown Variables
Tab sis tsis muaj leej twg tuaj yeem kwv yees:Puas yog BOE lossis lwm cov zaub loj loj yuav nqis peev rau hauv tshuab electrophoretic?BOE muaj lub peev xwm tsim khoom, cov txuj ci engineering, thiab cov peev txheej nyiaj txiag los tawm tsam E Ink ncaj qha. Tab sis e- ntawv yog lub lag luam me me los ntawm BOE cov qauv. Kev ua lag luam $1 nphom yog qhov yuam kev sib npaug rau ib lub tuam txhab nrog $30+ billion hauv cov nyiaj tau los txhua xyoo. Cov teeb meem zoo rau kev nqis peev loj yog tsis meej.
Lwm cov thev naus laus zis puas yuav ua tiav kev lag luam?Cholesteric LCD muaj qee cov e- ntawv- zoo li cov yam ntxwv (bistable, reflective) nrog cov nqi tsim khoom qis dua. Electrowetting qhia tau cog lus ntau tab sis xa khoom me me. Cov thev naus laus zis tshiab tuaj yeem tshwm sim. Txawm hais tias ib qho twg tuaj yeem phim e-ink qhov sib xyaw ua ke ntawm cov yam ntxwv- sib piv, bistability, saib lub kaum ntse ntse, yoog raws- tseem yuav pom.
Puas yuav E Ink preemptively txiav nqi los tiv thaiv kev lag luam?Monopolists ntsib cov kev sib tw muaj peev xwm qee zaum txo tus nqi tawm tswv yim, lees txais cov paj qis kom tsis txhob muaj peev txheej los ntawm cov neeg sib tw muaj peev xwm. E Ink tuaj yeem txiav nqi 20-30% thiab tseem muaj txiaj ntsig. Lawv puas yuav txi nyiaj txiag los tuav txoj cai monopoly? Qhov kev txiav txim siab tsis yog kev lag luam nkaus xwb- nws suav nrog kev ua si txoj kev xav, koom nrog lub tswv yim, thiab kev ntsuam xyuas ntawm kev sib tw kev hem thawj uas cov neeg sab nrauv tsis tuaj yeem ntsuas.
Puas yuav Apple, Samsung, lossis lwm tus players loj nkag mus hauv khw?Ib lub tuam txhab siv khoom siv hluav taws xob loj tsim cov e- cov khoom lag luam tus lej loj tuaj yeem hloov kho tag nrho cov khoom siv. Apple qhov kev txaus siab rau e- ntawv tau rumored rau xyoo tsis muaj dab tsi los qhia. Samsung muaj kev tshaj lij kev tsim khoom los sib tw nrog E Ink ncaj qha yog tias mob siab rau. Tsis muaj leej twg tau ua qhov tseem ceeb txav mus rau qhov kev taw qhia no.
Kev ntsuam xyuas ncaj ncees: tsis muaj leej twg paub. Qhov feem ntau yuav tshwm sim yog txuas ntxiv evolution zuj zus ntxiv- maj mam txo tus nqi, maj mam txhim kho thev naus laus zis, maj mam nthuav cov ntawv thov- dua li tsis muaj kev cuam tshuam loj heev. Tab sis kev cuam tshuam, yog tias nws los, tuaj yeem tuaj sai.
E- tus nqi ntawm tus number case tsis yog txiav txim los ntawm kev tsim khoom nyuaj, cov nqi khoom siv, lossis kev siv thev naus laus zis. Nws yog txiav txim los ntawm kev ua lag luam qauv.
Ib lub tuam txhab tswj cov khoom siv. Patents thaiv kev sib tw. Kev ua lag luam me me dhau los ua kom zoo - cov neeg sib tw tau nyiaj. Cov nqi tseem siab vim tsis muaj dab tsi yuam kom lawv qis dua.
