ELECTROPHORETIC DISPLAY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18603220 titled 'ELECTROPHORETIC DISPLAY DEVICE
The patent application describes an electrophoretic display device with multiple stretchable layers for enhanced flexibility and durability.
- The device includes a first stretchable material layer, a first stretchable electrode layer, a stretchable electrophoretic display medium layer, multiple second stretchable electrode layers, an insulation layer, and a third stretchable electrode layer.
- The first stretchable electrode layer is on the first stretchable material layer, while the electrophoretic display medium layer is on the first electrode layer.
- The second stretchable electrode layers are on the display medium layer, creating multiple display regions.
- The insulation layer has through holes filled with conductive materials, connecting the third electrode layer to the second electrode layers.
Potential Applications: - E-readers - Smart wearable devices - Flexible displays for IoT devices
Problems Solved: - Improved flexibility and durability of display devices - Enhanced display quality with multiple display regions

Commercial Applications: "Stretchable Electrophoretic Display Device for Next-Generation Wearable Technology"
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the stretchable electrophoretic display device improve user experience compared to traditional displays? 2. What are the potential cost implications of implementing this technology in commercial products?
Original Abstract Submitted
An electrophoretic display device including a first stretchable material layer, a first stretchable electrode layer, a stretchable electrophoretic display medium layer, multiple second stretchable electrode layers, an insulation layer, and a third stretchable electrode layer. The first stretchable electrode layer is disposed on the first stretchable material layer. The stretchable electrophoretic display medium layer is disposed on the first stretchable electrode layer. The second stretchable electrode layers are separately disposed on the stretchable electrophoretic display medium layer, so that the stretchable electrophoretic display medium layer forms multiple display regions. The insulation layer is disposed on the second stretchable electrode layers, and has multiple through holes in which multiple conductive materials are respectively filled. The third stretchable electrode layer is disposed on the insulation layer, and is electrically connected to the second stretchable electrode layers through the conductive materials, respectively.
