EReader screen maker Prime View International changed its name to E Ink Holdings last week, confirming its commitment to ePaper, said the company.
PVI will offer its LCD products under the brand “Hydis” and its eReader screens under “E Ink.” “The E Ink name is synonymous with the ePaper industry that we pioneered and in which we enjoy a leadership position. We are now a globally recognized brand name and aim to have our displays on every smart surface,” said E Ink chairman and CEO Scott Liu.
E Ink says it has 20 million E Ink displays in the field used in applications from eReaders to mobile phones to watches. E Ink’s Hydis LCDs are suited for TVs, mobile phones, gaming devices, tablet PCs, and navigation systems, it said.
