Jason Heikenfeld, UC associate professor of electrical and computer engineering in the College of Engineering & Applied Science and his team at the Novel Devices Laboratory at the University of Cincinnati have developed a breakthrough electrofluidics design that provides high-speed, high readibility and low power consumption at the same time.
Currently, devices like the Kindle e-readers offer limited function and slow speed but require little power to operate. Devices like cell phones, laptops and the iPad provide high color saturation and high-speed capability for video and other functions but at a cost of high power usage.
According to Gamma Dynamics’ Rudolph, this electrofluidics breakthrough will change the display technology used in a myriad of electronic devices. e-Readers like the Amazon Kindle will be able to display color and video. Devices like cell phones and iPads will require much less power and will be readable even in bright sunlight.
Partner companies are Gamma Dynamics, Dupont and Sun Chemical.
