E-Paper RFID Tag

At the Auto-ID Expo that recently took place in Tokyo, Epson unveiled a passive RFID tag (13.56MHz; ISO 15693) that has a display. The display component is implemented by using E-ink's EP Sheet. The display works without batteries, by using the electrophoretic effect.

The cost for making this tag is still rather expensive -- someone thinks the cost needs to be lowered to several dollars.
