A connector for an electro-optic display comprising: a non-conductive sheet having a top surface and a bottom surface; a first layer of conductive material applied to at least a portion of the bottom surface; a second layer of conductive material applied to a first portion of the top surface; a third layer of conductive material applied to a second portion of the top surface, the third layer of conductive material being electrically isolated from the second layer of conductive material; and a conductive via electrically connecting the first layer of conductive material and the second layer of conductive material.

Connectors for electro-optic displays

A display () primarily intended for use on an external surface of a building comprises a weatherproof housing (); a bistable electro-optic medium () enclosed within and visible through the housing; an electrode () enclosed within the weatherproof housing and arranged to drive the electro-optic medium; a power source () enclosed within the weatherproof housing; data receiving means () enclosed within the weatherproof housing and arranged to receive data wirelessly from a source outside the weatherproof housing; and display drive means () arranged to receive data from the data receiving means and power from the power source, and to control the potential of the electrode.

Displays intended for use in architectural applications

A method and system for forming filter elements on a plurality of display substrates using a digital imaging system operable to selectively deposit filter material at a plurality of deposition locations is disclosed. The method involves receiving orientation information defining a disposition of a plurality of pixels associated with the at least one display substrate, identifying pixels in the plurality of pixels that are to receive filter material for forming a filter element on the pixel, selecting deposition locations within each of the identified pixels in accordance with the orientation information to meet an alignment criterion associated with placement of the filter element within the pixel, and controlling the digital imaging system to cause deposition of the filter material at the selected deposition locations. A method and system for forming filter elements on a substrate is also disclosed, which involves selecting locations to receive filter material for forming filter elements on the substrate, introducing a random variation in placement of the filter elements, and forming filter elements at the selected locations, the substrate being subsequently aligned to a display substrate for forming a display. A method and system for forming filter elements on a display substrate is also disclosed, which involves selectively depositing filter material to form the filter elements on a plurality of pixels associated with the display substrate, and selectively exposing the deposited filter material to thermal laser radiation to condition the deposited filter material.
