Pixel Qi T3 Screens: Technology That Has the Potential to Revolutionize Mobile Computing and EMRs
I came across this revolutionary technology as I was investigating e-readers with e-ink technology. Pixel Qi T3 screens have many of the advantages of e-ink screens and solves their draw backs I presented in my previous post.
Pixel Qi T3 screens are screens manufactured using current standard manufacturing materials. These screens work in two modes. One is a regular LCD color saturated mode that adds no advantage to current screens. The second mode is basically a very clear black and white mode that requires ambient light similar to e-ink screens.
The advantage of Pixel Qi T3 screen is its readability and tremendous power saving. These two advantages are already offered by e-readers as the Kindle. However, Pixel QI screens, also, solve the two draw backs of current e-books with e-ink technology I mentioned in my previous posts. These are:
1. Refresh rate. Pixel Qi T3 screens have high refresh rate; close to regular LCD screens.
2. Data entry. The plan is to have netbooks with these screens late 2009. These will have keyboards for data entry. Having touch screens for direct writing is still some time away. As with current technology, making touch sensitive screens reduces their clarity.
Pixel Qi T3 screens are cheap and will allow for the development of cheap computers. Pixel Qi are hoping for $75 netbooks!
Smartly developed interface using this screen technology can surely increase the adoption of EMRs.
