Reading on The Move

A new design concept device called ROEM (Reading on The Move) enables users to download and carry electronic books and other reading material. The intention is for portability and distribution possibilities for publishing companies and users. ROEM helps to save paper and printing resources. The use of rollable electronic paper provides better sized reading area and comfort.

The screen would contain piezoelectric material, and would eventually allow colours to be displayed. The device rolls up so that you would never tell it was an electronic paper device! The best part is the type of charging it uses: fanning the screen.

The ROEM would be able to be used as a photo displayer, language-aid, MP3 player, and even a navigation tool. Dictionary software would be included, along with sizable fonts.
