e-Sheet

Caption

In ten to 20 years, we will see the e-Sheet, a virtually indestructible e-device that will be as thin and as rollable as a rubber place mat. It will be full color and interactive, while requiring low power to operate since it will charge via sunlight and ambient room light. However, it will be so “tough” and only use wireless connection ports, such that you can leave it out over night in the rain. In fact, you’ll be able to wash it or drop it without damaging the thin, highly flexible casing.
