I’ve shown you the daylight abilities of Liquavista’s screen tech before, but I thought this was worth repeating. Charbax of Armdevices.net visited their Toulouse office and shot this 9 minute video. Note how the sunlight washes out the screen.

Liquavista today announced a new display platform named LiquavistaVivid. It sounds a lot like Pizel Qi, actually. From the press release:
Liquavista BV, today announced the launch of its next product platform LiquavistaVivid. Bringing a level of performance unparalleled by other transflective displays, LiquavistaVivid is the ultimate, highly versatile, intelligent adaptive display; specifically developed to support a broad range of feature rich, multi-functional consumer electronic devices.LiquavistaVivid offers the best high brightness monochrome reading experience both indoors and outdoors, while also offering hi-fidelity video and super-rich colors on demand. Depending on environment and application, LiquavistaVivid displays can intelligently switch from a sharp, paperlike monochrome mode, to a vivid color-rich multimedia mode, with TV like color in order to provide the highest level of performance in each intelligent user mode. Each mode comes with seamless interactivity and hi-fidelity video capability. As with all Liquavista technology platforms, LiquavistaVivid displays come with the added benefit of the widest dynamic addressing range of any display technology. This allows Liquavista displays to support hi-fidelity video without compromising on power, whilst at the same time supporting ultra-low power static reading modes.

+Plastic Electronics interviewed Guy Demuynck, CEO of Liquavista. Details are sparse, but they’re still interesting. Here are a couple excerpts:
Guy Demuynck, CEO of Liquavista, explains: ‘We are in discussions with people from this area – telecoms and mobile providers. They are thinking about subscription models.
‘E-readers are offered as part of a package and providers already have deals on a selection of content. Telecom companies could do the same, and make these deals across many subscription products.’
Despite commercial successes such as the Kindle, e-readers – as a new class of consumer electronic device – are still struggling to find their feet. But the telecoms industry has and will continue to play a key role in their adoption, along with other multimedia digital content devices like the iPad and smartphones.
…
Liquavista is targeting the telecoms industry as the area where its full-colour displays can make an impact once manufacturing is underway next year.
Demuynck adds: ‘The next step for e-readers will be magazines and newspapers. As these are driven by advertising, developers want full-colour displays and video capability.
