Making of E-ink’s 300′ Screen (Behind the Scenes Video)

Making of E-ink's 300' Screen (Behind the Scenes Video) e-Reading Hardware A few months back I posted a couple photos that showed some details about how an E-ink screen is made. Today I found a behind the scenes video that E-ink shot when they took those photos. This video is actually much more impressive.

Like I said before, the E-ink screen is initially made as a long roll of plastic. The roll is manufactured in E-ink's Massachusetts factory and then shipped to Asia where the screen material is cut to the required sizes (5", 6", 9,7") and then mounted on the backplanes.

Everything quickly spiraled out of control from there. Before I started this blog in January 2010 I covered ebooks, ebook readers, and digital publishing for about 2 years as a part of MobileRead Forums. It's a great community, and being a member is a joy. But I thought I could make something out of how I covered the news for MobileRead, so I started this blog."
