eInk / ebook demos?

category: general [glöplog]
 
Are there any demos using eink screens or electronic book readers specifically? A quick search gave me nothing in that regard, but maybe it was way too quick.

Thanks in advance for enlightening an ignorant newbie!
quick search https://demozoo.org/productions/266529/ there is this custom hardware one. i think i recall something for the kindle or the kobo being done before but cant find it atm.

the refresh rate of those kind of devices/screens is typically very low to save battery i guess, not very appealing to do realtime visuals for.

depends. even my fuck old kobo reader has a drawing app... probably uses some blitter/scissor-like tricks to just update pixels along the vector path what you're drawing rather than a full-screen redraw... (the later will probably damage your e-ink display pretty fast)
Never got around making a proper demo before our company ran out of money, but this is about as far as I got
