本實施例中係不限制外殼11的實施態樣，其可例如為單一構件或由複數構件連結而形成。本實施例亦不限制外殼11的形狀，其可例如為方形或特殊造型。本實施例亦不限制外殼11的材質，其材質可例如為金屬、塑膠、玻璃等等。外殼11可為整機(complete set)階段的外殼，即使用者可看到，或為模組(module)階段的外殼，即使用者一般是無法看到的。 In this embodiment, the embodiment of the outer casing 11 is not limited, and it may be formed, for example, as a single member or by a plurality of members. This embodiment also does not limit the shape of the outer casing 11, which may be, for example, square or special. This embodiment also does not limit the material of the outer casing 11, and the material thereof may be, for example, metal, plastic, glass, or the like. The outer casing 11 can be a complete set of stages, that is, a casing that can be seen by a user or that is a module stage, that is, a user generally cannot see.
第一非揮發型顯示面板12或第二非揮發型顯示面板13為雙穩態顯示面板或多穩態顯示面板。第一非揮發型顯示面板12或第二非揮發型顯示面板13均可包含電致變色(Electrichromism)材料(例如鉬、鈮或鈦的氧化物)、電泳材料、扭轉向列球、快速反應粉流體、膽固醇液晶、電濕式材料、或微機電系統，以達到雙穩態或多穩態的顯示。 The first non-volatile display panel 12 or the second non-volatile display panel 13 is a bistable display panel or a multi-stable display panel. The first non-volatile display panel 12 or the second non-volatile display panel 13 may each comprise an electrochromic material (such as an oxide of molybdenum, niobium or titanium), an electrophoretic material, a twisted nematic ball, a fast reaction powder. Fluid, cholesteric liquid crystal, electrowetting material, or microelectromechanical system to achieve bistable or multi-stable display.
第一非揮發型顯示面板12設置於外殼11內並露出一顯示區A。於此，顯示區A係用以顯示一般的畫面資料，例如影像或影音資料。若應用於電子標籤，則第一非揮發型顯示面板12可顯示物品的價格及資訊。第二非揮發型顯示面板13設置於顯示區A之至少一部分外周圍，例如至少一側、一側邊或一邊緣。第一非揮發型顯示面板12與第二非揮發型顯示面板13可不重疊，且二者可間隔一距離或相互連接。於此，第二非揮發型顯示面板13係用以凸顯第一非揮發型顯示面板12所顯示的資料，例如作為電子標籤應用時，產品若進行特價，可藉由第二非揮發型顯示面板13的顏色變化，例如變得鮮豔、醒目，進而吸引消費者注意到第一非揮發型顯示面板12所標示的產品價格及資訊。另外，第二非揮發型顯示面板13也可用來顯示次要的資料或圖案，例如可為跑馬燈資訊或是作為裝飾的圖案。 The first non-volatile display panel 12 is disposed in the outer casing 11 and exposes a display area A. Here, the display area A is used to display general picture data, such as video or audio and video materials. If applied to an electronic tag, the first non-volatile display panel 12 can display the price and information of the item. The second non-volatile display panel 13 is disposed at an outer periphery of at least a portion of the display area A, such as at least one side, one side, or one edge. The first non-volatile display panel 12 and the second non-volatile display panel 13 may not overlap, and the two may be spaced apart or connected to each other. Herein, the second non-volatile display panel 13 is used to highlight the information displayed by the first non-volatile display panel 12. For example, when the electronic tag is applied, if the product is subjected to a special price, the second non-volatile display panel can be used. The color change of 13, for example, becomes bright and conspicuous, thereby attracting the consumer to notice the price and information of the product indicated by the first non-volatile display panel 12.
