摘要： An electro-optic display comprises a bistable electro-optic medium, a plurality of pixel electrodes, with associated non-linear elements, and a common electrode, disposed on opposed sides of the electro-optic medium. The display has a writing mode, in which at least two different voltages are applied to different pixel electrodes, and a non-writing mode in which the voltages applied to the pixel electrodes are controlled so that any image previously written on the electro-optic medium is substantially maintained. The display is arranged to apply to the common electrode a first voltage when the display is in its writing mode and a second voltage, different from the first voltage, when the display is in its non-writing mode.

摘要： An electro-optic display including a large area flexible substrate, a plurality of electro-optic display units, and an encapsulating cover sheet secured to the flexible substrate that encapsulates the display units. The encapsulating cover sheet protects the display units from mechanical damage and makes the tiled display units appear as a continuous structure.

摘要： A bistable electro-optic display has a plurality of pixels, each of which is capable of displaying at least three gray levels. The display is driven by a method comprising: storing a look-up table containing data representing the impulses necessary to convert an initial gray level to a final gray level; storing data representing at least an initial state of each pixel of the display; receiving an input signal representing a desired final state of at least one pixel of the display; and generating an output signal representing the impulse necessary to convert the initial state of the one pixel to the desired final state thereof, as determined from the look-up table. The invention also provides a method for reducing the remnant voltage of an electro-optic display.
