Shadowplay tests

Makeshift setup:

Displays for a possible display-based zoetrope

E-paper:

E-paper would be great, as it's thin, viewable from a broad angle, has a high contrast and a nice texture. Pervasive Displays manufacture e-paper displays, one of their offices is located in Soest, The Netherlands. They don't sell it, sadly. The cheapest/nearest reseller I found is Ineltek, in Heidenheim, Germany.

Pervasive Displays 2.7 inch

Active area: 29 x 22 mm / 264 x 176 px

34 euros per screen, when buying 10-15 pcs.

Pervasive Displays 4.41 inch

Active area: 90 x 67 mm / 400 x 300 px

52.60 euros per screen, when buying 10-15 pcs.

Pervasive Displays 7.4 inch

Active area: 100 x 162 mm / 480 x 800 px

119,75 euros per screen, when buying 10-15 pcs.

A recent discussion about e-paper on the Arduino forums. Perhaps an alternative would be to buy a bunch of cheap e-readers.
