About Noto Display a carta elettronica
Noto è un display a carta elettronica pensato per uffici e spazi di lavoro personali. Fissato alla parete con magneti, Noto funziona come targa per le sale riunioni: uno schermo rosso segnala che la sala è occupata. Appoggiato sulla scrivania grazie al supporto ad anello girevole integrato, Noto mostra liste di cose da fare e calendari con orientamento verticale o orizzontale. Lo schermo a tre colori è privo di riflessi e consuma energia solo durante l'aggiornamento dei contenuti, che avviene da remoto tramite rete wireless. Tre batterie AA garantiscono un'autonomia da uno a due anni. Il corpo è realizzato in ABS opaco riciclabile.

Press Kit
- Unique Properties
- Noto is a dual-state E-ink display serving as a professional meeting sign or personal productivity tool. It transitions from a wall-mounted 'Notice' board to a desktop 'Note' via a 360-degree rotating stand. The tri-color, glare-free screen offers a paper-like experience, while the elegant integrated curved back feels organic in any environment. Powered by 3 AA batteries, it ensures a sustainable 1-2 year lifespan, avoiding the impact of lithium-ion waste.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- Dimensions: 178mm (W) x 119mm (D) x 28mm (H). Screen: Three-color E-ink (Red, White, Black). Connectivity: Wireless Network (Wi-Fi). Power Source: 3 x AA Batteries. Mounting: Magnetic wall-mount and integrated rotating ring stand. Orientation: Supports both horizontal and vertical display modes.

- Production Technology
- The device uses Tri-Color E-Ink technology, consuming power only during refreshes for 'Always-On' visibility without drain. The body features recyclable, matte ABS to complement the paper-like display. Internal hardware is optimized for ultra-low power, integrating Wi-Fi for cloud synchronization. High-strength neodymium magnets ensure stable mounting on various surfaces.
- Design Challenge
- The primary design challenge was reconciling the volumetric constraints of three AA batteries with the aesthetic requirement for a slim, modern profile. Furthermore, engineering the dual-mode interaction posed a significant structural hurdle; magnetic attachments had to be secure for wall mounting yet effortless for desktop use, necessitating iterative testing of hinge torque. Finally, optimizing Wi-Fi wake-up protocols ensured battery life without slowing sync.
- Research
- Market trends show a surge in "Quiet Technology" to combat screen fatigue and paper waste. Our research balanced energy autonomy with seamless connectivity. User testing proved the tri-color (Red/Black/White) palette signals status—like "Occupied"—more effectively than monochrome, without the glare of glowing screens. Additionally, choosing AA batteries over lithium cells extends product life and simplifies recycling, firmly aligning with modern eco-standards.
- Inspiration
- Noto was inspired by the desire to bridge the gap between static paper efficiency and digital flexibility. Traditional paper generates waste, while standard screens cause visual fatigue and high energy consumption. Noto aims to be a "living piece of paper"—an eco-friendly, non-intrusive information hub that adapts to both collaborative office and personal workspaces.
- Project Duration
- The project started in Beijing, China in August 2025 and finished in January 2026.
- Operation Flow
- Users update content remotely via a dedicated mobile app or web interface. For professional use, NOTO magnetically snaps onto the wall as a meeting room indicator. A red screen indicates "Occupied," offering clear visual cues from a distance. For personal use, the rotating ring stand allows desktop placement. The rotating mechanism allows for quick switching between portrait (To-do lists) and landscape (Calendars) orientations, providing an intuitive and tactile user experience.
