E-ink displays are already used in e-book readers and smartphone cases. We have even reviewed smartphones that only have an e-ink display to last for months. The NFC TapE-Ink Badge is a clever way to use this technology. It can be attached to your bags, purses, or even keys. You can use it to display our pet’s photo or contact information just in case your valuable items are lost.
This e-ink badge is powered by your phone’s NFC. It has an ABS shell construction with IP65 waterproof rating. It works without a battery and uses your phone’s NFC for charging. To change its photo, simply select the image you want on your phone and transfer it to the display with a tap. You can display photos, artwork and QR codes on this. The NFC TapE-Ink Badge weighs only 20g. This project is on Kickstarter at this time.
