Brad Benson from HP

R&D at HP [MY NOTE:From Corvallis! I had a great time chatting with him.]

Paper best reflective display 1900+ years old. Layered CMY colors on paper make color. Human color perception was quantified in the 1930s.

L* coding 100 is brightest white.

90 for magazines, 76% reflectivity

80 for color newsprint, 56% reflectivity

[Note: see Tom Koch PDF for detail]

Where is our full color ereader with magazine quality? Probably still 2-3 years out. Flexible? Likely 5 years out.
