It\u2019s just a giant E Ink display plastered on the outside of a vehicle. Like the E Ink display on a Kindle, the iX Flow wr<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>er can transition between black, white, and gray colors by pulsing electrical currents through small microcapsules the size of a human hair.<\/p>\n<lite-youtube videoid=\"tcLX9wcPQT4\" style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/tcLX9wcPQT4\/hqdefault.jpg');\">\n<button type=\"button\" class=\"lty-playbtn\"><br \/>\n<span class=\"lyt-visually-hidden\">Play Video<\/span><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/lite-youtube>\n<p>These microcapsules flip between pigments when stimulated by an electrical current, and oddly enough, their pigment stays in place without any additional energy usage. It\u2019s also worth noting that, although the iX Flow concept shown at CES 2022 isn\u2019t exactly \u201ccolorful,\u201d <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/redirect.viglink.com\/?key=204a528a336ede4177fff0d84a044482&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eink.com%2Fcolor-technology.html\">future E Ink technologies<\/a> could dramatically expand its palette.<\/p>\n<p>Okay, so what\u2019s the point in a color-changing vehicle? BWM explains that light colors reflect heat and stay cool, while darker colors absorb heat and get warm. In an electric car, this concept could help reduce energy usage by reflecting heat on warm days and, you guessed it, absorbing heat on cold days.<\/p>\n<p>But don\u2019t expect to buy a color-changing car any time soon. BMW says that iX Flow is still just a concept, and to be honest, the E Ink wrapper is probably quite fragile.
