Abstract

The electrophoretic display (EPD) is the main solution to electronic papers, but most of them can display the image or text in black and white particles only. The users may prefer the EPD showing multiple colors rather than the black/white content only. In this paper, we introduce the driving system for a color EPD, which is composed of three kinds of particles. The system aims at optimizing the visual quality based on a new driving waveform by equipping with an optimization method for color and tone reproduction. The experimental result shows that the proposed EPD driving system can display three-color pictures with promising visual quality.
