We already know that Qualcomm and MEMS displays go , but now the company is looking to seep into the mobile realm with an iteration that can supposedly handle fast-changing video clips without breaking a sweat. Put simply, the company’s electronic-paper display “employs microscopic mechanical switches that turn pixels on and off at rates more than fast enough to display video,” and unlike slower alternatives, this variation can switch on / off pixels in “just tens of microseconds.” Furthermore, these units will offer up considerable energy savings when not viewing video. As it stands, full color versions are still quite a ways from commercialization, but a two-color flavor is scheduled to appear in a Hisense handset next year.
